Timeless

A poem about growing older

When she was young her long blonde hair shimmered like gold
The color has turned to silver as she has grown old
As a little girl her eyes were alive and bright
Time changed them to have an understanding light

A beautiful mouth, her smile turned every boys head
Lines have appeared from all those smiles for words left unsaid
Though the outer beauty of youth has passed on
Her years have given her splendor far beyond
