I reflect on a time
when life seemed easier
and the burdens were not
so heavy and numerous
but then I begin to wonder
whether anything in life
has really changed, or
was it just my youthful mind
that shielded me from such things
- Written for dVerse Poetics: It's all in the timing.
I like your reflection...part of comparing past with present is sifting circumstances from our frame of mind...at times I feel less burdened and at others more ...
