The Other Side Of The Coin Poem by Audrey Heller

Sometimes I think about getting
older and wonder how will it be?
For time doesn't stand still and
eventually, will catch up with me.
I don't think you can ever really
be prepared. Just the thought
of it, can get you a little scared.
Then of course there's the other
side of the coin too. When you
think of all you accomplished
and no longer have to go
through. There's a great deal
of satisfaction, knowing you are
able to come this far. For the
first time in your life, you know,
exactly who you are. Summing
it all up, there truly is so much to
look forward to, not worry about
what lies ahead. Just be grateful
for everyday and forget all your
fears and dread!
