Our minds grow old as our bodies do, and for reasons we cannot explain, we somehow let youthful spirit disappear from our thoughts. Mind and body are not separate after all.

Ah! them good old fearless days, I often wonder if nowadays it is fear or age that slows us down a bit, maybe even what some call common sense, very well written and presented****kahpot

Comment from RJ Heritage
What I feel from this poem is nostalgia in looking back at the things I use to do in my youth, things that I can no longer do without great effort. Then in faith, I relive some moments and recapture moments of my youthfulness.
Well written.

Your free verse speaks to me about the carefree times of youth when it was so much easier to have faith before all the waves started crashing on the worn-out rocks. Even as we get worn out, may our faith keep growing stronger and fly free in the wind of the Spirit!

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
A beautifully poignant verse looking back on youthful years, at one with nature and confidently facing the world with joy and courage, a contrast to the way the narrator now feels. I love the alliterative last line, my favourite. Thank you, Gypsy. Take care Debbie

Comment from Mike Stevens
Another fine poem, Gypsy....and what is it about the ocean? Back in my non-gimp days when I was the vocalist for our heavy metal band, I used to drive forty minutes so I could sit by an inlet of the ocean and wrute song lyrics. Don't know why

That sounds wonderful, Mike.
Thank you very much for your excellent review and kind words. I used to drive to the beach all the time when I lived close to San Francisco. Now I live and los angeles and I don't drive anymore... I gave my car to my son.
