Time has drawn shadows around my eyes.
Lines etch memories around my smile.
I can still cartwheel though in an open field on a sunny day, dandelions tickling my ankles.
I can see more clearly now than I ever have. Progressives.
Wisdom comes in a vitamin for 40+ year old women.
I drink fruit-flavored tea to party, and a Friday night in is a hot night out.
Soft pajamas matter more than trendy dresses.
Yet I am still made of stories that could spark your passion in one telling. I am a whole book of stories.
Time has drawn shadows around my eyes.
Soft, billowy shadows.
If you look inside them there is a brightness and sight that only comes with time.
Sight that paints a bold, swirling picture of the beauty I have lived.
