Time, why so slow?

As a child,

the torture of months,

Seven, seven and a quarter,

My next milestone,

years away.

Each day, an adventure.

Wanting to be an adult,

Eighteen, independence,

to live my own life.

Now, another milestone.

Thirty, forty, fifty. Now, nearly sixty.

Time, going quickly.

Rushing

from spring to winter,

another birthday.

Why does time fly so fast?

I am a fifty something mother of two grown up children, and one beautiful grandchild. I have been married for nearly thirty-four years. My first book was published ten years ago. I wrote my book Sticks and Stones because of my experience of being bullied at school.

  1. Teenagers often say “I will be 15 or 16 next year” with great pride. Then, we get vague using terms like 30+, 40+ or ‘on the wrong side of –‘.

    Why does it feel like we have a lesser right to live as we grow old?
