QOTD #200

What’s a topic or issue about which you’ve changed your mind?

To answer today’s question of the day, I’ve decided to flex my creativity. I hope you enjoy.

TIME MARCHES ON 🕰️

Fifty years was old, until you reached it 

Honestly, novel, unless you preached it.

–

Expensive just a word until you’ve spent it 

Money quite abundant, until you’ve lent it.

–

Time everlasting until it’s all gone 

Criticism lambasting but you carry on.

–

Twenty, quite young but no so long ago 

It was a milestone age for us you know.

–

New music trends and all our ovations 

Now audible on Classic Rock stations.

–

Naps were sacrilege at our youngest age

Now at age fifty-two, they’re quite the rage.

–

Nostalgia floods us with TV shows passed

Now streaming on services, mind surpassed.

–

Fast food we ate up at eighteen in a flash 

Now more like reconstituted tasteless trash.

–

Movies that were amazing in our youth 

Seem lame, older in our own the truth.

–

Our politics change like underwear 

We became informed and started to care.

–

World events touch us like never before

Educated, experienced, we know the score.

–

In youth, growing old seems such a change 

In reality, considerably more is rearranged…
