Smiled at you and hubby's saying "It's not the years, honey - it's the mileage." ;)

Just wait till you're 65 like me!

I think 54 is the perfect age to begin writing love poems. This one is lovely!

"...but it's the color we're given."

And look what you did with what you were given.

Thank you for reading, Jody!

I didn't appreciate Wilbur's poem until the Close Reads team walked through it in a recent poetry hour. Now it's one I love.
