What I'd Tell You Today, If I Could (for Fran's Birthday)
I'd tell you
that age, from where I sit
from what I know
from who I am
where I went and where
I am going I would tell you that age
is just a small idea
smaller than anything
that might happen to
your knees and we
who don't know what age even means
we who live each day
we're all hoping hard
that we can that we will
be able to live
each day knowing
as much as we can
who we are
