Age is merely that ever growing number.
I've seen that some people, get younger and younger,
regardless of age.
Some people will wither
and shrivel with rage,
as their number climbs.
To me, a birthday is a time of reflection.
a time to look back at that epic collection,
of memories and moments,
and relish in the possibilities of
what is yet to come.
