Crow’s feet, worn badges earned from laughing at the good and the bad jokes.

Tears, rewarding and painful symbols of each person or animal in need helped.

Grey hair, a tattered flag for both easy and hard lessons.

Worried brow, a wrinkled symbol of care and love for family, marriage, job, the world.

Blue eyes behind thick glasses, a watery reflection of blue feelings.

Un-moisturized skin my mother nags about, a constant reminder of the long road.

Smiles, not a bad history to repeat.
