Take an Old Poet’s Word for It

The day ages stealthily.
It’s captured you pretty well,
And here you are reading this,

Or there you are on a walk,
Hopefully glad for the chance
And the slight ability

To manage a short amble
Down a mostly empty road
On a country afternoon.

Yes, be doing that, not this.
If you can’t resist reading,
Weird person, finish quickly.

Get that walk in, if you can.
The day ages stealthily.
