Age, a rocky tor
begs attitudinal shift
more wonder
than fortitude
Cyclical, actually
wisdom allotting
childish valour
a dash of mellow.

Your post didn’t link up to RDP. I love the image. I agree there is some wisdom in allowing our childish side to mellow us out in our old age! What do they say…take a chill pill! lol

This is a very striking image. I think we do experience age in a cyclical kind of way.

The image is beautiful. I don’t know the media, but the colors and the shapes and lines of things are both thoughtful and delightful. In terms of text, urging the cycle of life to include some mellow for the “childish valour” sounds balanced. Does this mean that maturity could benefit from wisdom letting in some childishness? I hope so.
