The Ultimate Stage

By Kanchanamala

Wintry winds sting with biting cold 

Viridian scape gave way to ripen fall 

Nothing evades his tenacious hold

 Silvery lining 

contours once for all

Splendid  sinewy  supple body is the youth power.

Petite dame and lithe - framed  lad lure in the euphoric trance.

While ageing pervades like a conquerer that the robust do cower

Pace -less

steps stagger with stooping gait shifts the balance.

 Commanding positions being pushed to the yore,

Warm receptions  with fragrant perfumes and flowers are bygone .

Appointments with medicos recur like never before.

Smell of the  potions grow  with the list of  aches on and on.

Dying the tress, botox for skin can not bely the fact of decay.

The  phenomenon progresses steadily without delay.

The  phenomenon progresses steadily without delay.
