Comment from Mustang Patty
Hi there;
Such a positive statement about life in general. It isn't our age that makes us wise, but the life we've led.
Thank you for sharing,

Comment from Ogden
It seems that age has allowed you a good portion of common sense, Janet. And the ability to write excellent poetry to reflect on the time spent while growing older.
Best wishes,
Don (Ogden)

Each day is a new experience and we learn every day as we grow older; you penned an astute poem in meaningful verses with perfect rhymes; the last stanza is full of wisdom; thanks for sharing.

Comment from bichonfrisegirl
This is a beautiful poem, Janet! Great title ... "On the Verge of Wisdom". We like to think that as we get older we become wiser. Truth is we continually learn just how little we know. To realize that "life is what you give -- rejoicing in each brand new day" ... I'd say that's definitely "on the verge of wisdom".
So very nice! A pleasure to read!

Comment from Ben Colder
I think we who at the age, this stanza sticks out in my mind. I've searched for purpose eloquent
and cherished all those time worn songs.
I've shared my dreams, abandoned fears --
and righted many hurtful wrongs.

I too am still looking for that wisdom that helps me to answers all the questions that come my way. What I have found is be thankful for what you have and to count each day has a blessing. Thanks for a wonderful poem

Comment from Cindy McIntyre
I found your poem to be very insightful and honest! The book, "It's Never Too Late to Begin Again," does sound like a great book. It evoked a lovely poem, filled with intense emotions, out of you! Well-written!

In my opinion, a resoundingly beautiful soliloquy of later and most significant life, addressing our history of experiences and lessons learned. This stunning write is smooth and easy in fluid rhyme and flowing rhythm, its photo a perfect complement to the exquisite verse - and a distinct and relevant message to us in seniordom. Thank you for sharing this lovely reminder of our infinite worth...
