Birthday Wishes
If there were a chemical to freeze your age forever,
where you would stay the way you are, as mobile, fit and clever.
Birthday after birthday with no end in front of you.
Always a new chance to take, always something new.
If you were not already feeble, halt and ill,
would you drink the potion? Would you take the pill?
No altering minds afterwards. No climbing from the pit.
Once you made the decision, there would be no changing it.
Would you want to live forever to survive ’til mankind’s end?
Do you really want to see what is waiting ’round the bend?
I think given the choice that I would choose what nature dishes.
I’ve given up on following along with mankind’s wishes.
The word prompts today are birthday, chemical, freeze and quit. Here are their links:
