Sunrise
Dawning
.
Birthing, beginning, appearing, occurring,
Rays of light shining bright,
Sparks of perception,
Conception, in the night,
Comprehension, apprehension,
Understanding, awakening, insight
Emotions grow wider, softer
As we age, time spent intent
On introverted expansion,
And other dimensions,
Getting to the kernel of recognition
Of what makes us tick and others tock.

i think as we age we def get more in touch with who we are and hopefully that translates as well in how we interact with others as well…

Yes, Brian, I think that’s what growing older is all about: gaining more understanding of what makes people ‘tick’.

A very thoughtful poem, adee. I ‘m sure our insight does become more finely tuned as we get older.

Yes, AD, I think so too. For most of us anyway.

I especially like
“As we age, time spent intent
On introverted expansion,
And other dimensions,
Getting to the kernel of recognition
Of what makes us tick and others tock.”
And the last line is particularly clever.
