A short poem about aging and the desire to be viewed as we once were.
Remember me not when I am weak and frail
But when I was bold and strong
Remember me not as a wandering mind
But as a brilliant scholar
Remember me not with eyes of dim gray
But of sparkling blue
Remember me not as wrinkled and scarred
But with skin flawless and smooth
Because that my dear, is how, I remember you!
