A grownup is a child with layers on.—Woody Harrelson
I’m a child
with layers on
like an old tree
rejoicing
in clay-sand-humus
tickling the sky.

This is my final quote in a series of three about growing old—preceded by ‘Mind over matter’ and ‘Fifteen years from now’. I would like to extend my thanks to Kim Russell who invited me to join in with a Three Day Three Quote Challenge. If you enjoy poetry and creative writing by accomplished authors, I highly recommend her blog: Writing in North Norfolk.
My challenge nominees are:
Rules of the challenge:
- Post three quotes over three days.
- Name three nominees each day (no repetition).
- Thank the person who nominated you.
- Inform the nominees.
That is brilliant, Janice! I am most definitely a child with layers on! Thank you so much for joining in and sharing your fabulous quotes!
