Ageless

When young; our age is important;
one which we all address;
age affects our style or deportment;
when old; we are ageless.

Our physical body; ebbs; then flows.
having its own special seasons;
time decides when it comes and goes;
only God know the reasons.

Our life, on earth, exists but a season;
we live; counting hours and days;
only on earth, does time have a reason;
events become linked to age.

Age only matters; when related to time;
without time; age doesn’t exist;
death transports us; to a kingdom sublime;
at which time; all are ageless.

I’m at that age; when time is suspended;
all reasons for age; have gone;
discontinuities, have become blended;
and consciousness lives on.

As time starts to die; I start to move on;
I often can’t tell the day, or hour;
time is a memory; soon to be gone;
when old; it loses its power.

When we die; our time stands still;
our soul, once again, divine;
death always yields to God’s will;
funerals pay homage to time.
