How Old Are You (poem)


How Old Are You? by H. S. Fritsch
Age is a quality of mind. If you have left your dreams behind, If hope is cold, If you no longer look ahead, If your ambitions’ fires are dead — Then you are old. But if from life you take the best, And if in life you keep the jest, If love you hold; No matter how the years go by, No matter how the birthdays fly– You are not old. http://www.yourdailypoem.com/listpoem.jsp?poem_id=652
