Ninety-two sits quaintly in a garden, Intent on living through the awesome day. No sunshine is direct, but through the trees Enough is dappled in the gentle breeze To sing of glory in a muted way. Yet time itself can sometimes be a burden. The hours sway like dancers, slow and wanton, While thoughts flit through the roses as they please, Open-armed and lithe yet loathe to stay.
