Now we’re living,
in love
Not wondering
what’s happening
on the other side
of paradise.

We’re not concerned
We’re too in love
with living.

Like beating the summer heat,
hammock bound,
under an ancient, oak tree

We’re not quite, middle aged
but we’re not teens.
We’re human.

We answered all our questions
in years gone by
Told the rough years
to take a dive,
and drove by.

We’re in our thirties
and life is starting to make sense

We’re simply happy
we’ve survived all that
has flashed within our rearview.

    I must say, I have been enjoying the thirties more so than the twenties! And life certainly makes more sense and mainly I just stopped caring about a lot of stupid stuff. It’s all about enjoying life!
