age is a number
age is a number
that does not follow number rule.
mind has not learnt arithmatic.
it goes ageless.
one does not know
at what moment
it is seven, seveteen, thirty seven
or, when it is a broodng seventy.
in appreciation
change my color and gear.
to look straight at a beautiful face
of any age i do not fear.
age is a number;
mind is the master.
