the memory becomes selective,
the hearing too.
you choose
wisely the time and moment
when you
want to speak, to add
into the conversation,
but just a word
or two.
you learn when to leave.
when not to go.
your favorite word is no longer
yes, but a quiet no,
or maybe.
getting old
is not so bad after all.
except for the knees.
