Written for round four of I2's contest.
Never let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. (An additional prompt.)

Hands Of Time:

These old hands ~
are withered and worn.
This old heart ~
is tattered and torn.

This old mind ~
is fading away.
These old eyes ~
are dim shades of gray.

There was a time ~
when all things were clear.
Cherished moments ~
I now hold so dear.

Remember youth ~
the treasures it holds.
Memories made ~
stories to be told.

So, never let your left hand ~
know what your right hand is doing.

Keep one playing in the sand of youth ~
While the other, is writing and reviewing.
