Happy Birthday, Colin!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, COLIN!
Our old friend, Colin, has just celebrated his 80th birthday, in Wales.


When we reach the age of eighty
Then we feel the years are weighty.
But, dear Bloggers, take a look,
At our friend Colin  Easterbrook!
Here he is with kith and kin.
Some things we lose.
Look what we win!

Hello, and thanks for visiting me (porcupines). The second one is cuddly. They're both cute :) I love that pic of the Trojan horse.

They are introspective days for sure, but the chronological trappings are a trap from seeing the bigger meaning. You can never look back (or shouldn't) ... it's a vertiginous vortex that will sap your thoughts out of the present. Nice poem as always.
