Lorraine's Poems

Wrinkled
new baby
enters this world
helpless, crying
dependent on others.
She eats and gains strength
crawls, walks and stands tall
studies and enters the work force
gains promotion, and manages others.
Years pass by, decade after decade.
She retires, her footsteps slow.
She walks not quite so tall
is frail and quite small.
Dependent on others
helpless, crying.
exits this world
wrinkled
old lady.
