For the month of September I am going to choose a piece of music or song and write a poem or alternative version. Jane Dougherty is doing a September Stanza here. And Kat Myrman is doing September a poem a day Here.
Today’s piece of music is Landslide by Fleetwood Mac.
Here is my interpretation
Age brings more than just aches and pains
The hope is to have fewer losses and more gains
When you’ve climbed the mountain fate brings you down.
As you reach the summit the landslide brings you down.
Your body no longer seems your own
Your youth and vigour seem to have flown.
You just reach the pinicale of your life
You’ve been lover, mother, grandma and wife
When nature brings you to ground
And the landslide gets you down.
The story of your life can’t be changed
There is no going back to rearrange.
We all reach the Autumn of our time
We all tell ourselves all will be fine.
When nature brings you to ground
And the landslide gets you down.

I hate them. I’d rather not be reminded that another year has gone by, but the great organiser, my second daughter, would be horrified if I even mentioned not celebrating.

Yes indeed, had lunch with the three sons, Daughter in law and 2 grandsons. 💜

I hope you didn’t have to do all the cooking yourself.

I love the song too, it’s sad, beautiful and happy all at once, and I tried to reflect that in my poem.💜
