Jonathan Grown Old

There are times
As your mind travels on a scattered past
Flitting about from first to last / or
Perhaps, all out of sync
Trying to find that link to today

A reason to step out of sorrow
Crossing the bridge to tomorrow
Now hidden by low lying clouds of gray

Envious
Of those all atwitter
As newborn birds learning to fly
Your own wings ragged and dry
Wishing you had a reason
To soar above the rest
& test once again
The Morning sky.
