Elixir of Bounce



Elixir of Bounce

Aching hands that have taken life’s strains
Lines beginning to tell that you’ve smiled in the sun’s rays
You know where your back splits its side and laughs
And know ham strings as well as the sandwiches

Age around the body yet within, the spring
You’ve seen folks at twenty that seem old things
What decides your age outside the inevitable chronicler?
The Elixir of bounce that resides somewhere in your desiderata

Passion burns as long as life’s candle
Blessings are finding them for they lift, sustain and kindle
You realize the riches of life come from within
And, so live, in matt black or fashionable satin

No age of surrender if you find something to tend
One age only and it’ll be noticed by foe and friend
Greet the light and the night with a dancing delight
Accepting the slides to celebrate the up rides
