Young At Heart


I heard these song and it reminded me that we are only as old as we feel. What I want to know is what or who makes you keep feeling young at heart no matter how old you may be. So listen and then share with me your thoughts! I know what keeps me feeling young

I look forward to reading some wonderful poems. Sandy

    No poem just a comment

    I feel young at heart whenever a pretty girl smiles at me and says hello. More so when she stops and talks and even flirts a little. Even thpugh my roof has snow there is still a burning fire in the furnace. Papagallo
