Aging Adventures

Change is inevitable.
One day, I’m bubbly and carefree,
The next, I’m calm and calculated.
Did I lose my vibes from aging?
Are the fine lines around my eyes
Proof of new responsibilities?
No! They are testimonies of progress made,
And of a life well lived- but it is far from over.
