Every Wrinkle

Time can’t erase

All the lines on your face,

Although Botox, I’m told,

Helps you not look so old.

 

A face lift, as well,

Means that others can’t tell

Your true age, with success,

If they’re making a guess.

 

Every wrinkle reflects

How our body elects

To display each ordeal

That we cannot conceal.

 

So there’s no need to hide

What should bring us some pride,

For we’ve come to that age,

Turning many a page.

 

Still, I wouldn’t quite mind

If I woke up to find

That my sheets, wrinkle-free,

Passed that magic to me.
