To Change the Subject

God is not always on my mind.

I have thoughts of another kind.

Perhaps i talk of God too much

in my written poems and such.

What do my readers want to know

about what else i think also?

Well, here’s one about growing old

and watching the future unfold.

Disabilities come. Don’t cuss.

It can happen to all of us.

Approaching the end of our lives

we wonder if the soul survives.

I guess that takes care of old age,

from one rambunctious old sage.
