Dreams

We as young or as old as we feel.

I twirl
beneath the falling leaves
their fiery colors
gather all around me

I laugh in childish delight
loving the freedom to feel young again
as autumn chills the air
 and damp and cold is the wind

I want to be young and free
to be me and follow my dreams
at 20 I shouldn't feel so old
but old is how I feel, it seems

A lovely poem bout enjoying fall and youth but with a touch of sadness haunting it. We really are as old as we feel. Are minds are willing but sometimes our bodies are not. Very nicely done.

Very beautiful and enchanting. Yes, I agree. WE are only as old or young as we feel so we ought to try and be youthful within reason all the time. Nice positive poem.
