Promptly 4 and 5

Enough Already

Enough Already

Old age is content
to only sit and dream
far from in the stream,
without a new intent,
old age is still content

The young may build and scheme
of deeds afire that gleam,
but far beyond repent,
old age remains content

These things were once the cream,
perhaps more than they seem,
but sometimes called misspent,
and old age is content.
