At 55

 At 55,

I want to live

The way I imagined I will 

When I had the free will

And Imagination

Of a child.

With nothing to prove

And nowhere to reach

Free with no goals

Living life in the moment

Enjoying the moment 

Every moment

The world around is chaotic

With seemingly no hope

But I find all relationships symbiotic

Family, society, earth, water, river, 

Ocean, Mountains 

All interconnected in a 

Seemingly unconnected and disparate world.

Not AI

But NI 

Nature’s Intelligence

Is second to none

I hope the world understands that

Before it’s gone.

Let me,

Soak in the sun, 

Dream under the moon

Rock in the waves of the ocean 

My life has just begun

At 55.
