We Are Never Too Old to Learn...



PAD Challenge day 14: For today’s prompt, pick a popular saying and make that the title of your poem; then, write your poem.

 ...like a bud before blossom and blossom before fruit and fruit before harvest and harvest before winter and winter before spring...we are always becoming.

We all, are always becoming
And never too old to learn
The numbing nix of ticks and tocks
Grinning its no return

While we are always becoming
From frames of Who We Were
Her echoes of ‘I told you so’
Oft startle Who We Are

Yet, Who We Are is becoming
Who We Have Yet To Be
While we balance its earned and learned
With what we cannot see
