Treasured Interactions--My Thoughts. When one is young, interactions are more casual, Unless one is in love, when any moment together is treasured. As time passes, older people treasure interactions more. Visits and conversations have more profound meaning. Knowing death is ever-closer, the ag' ed one Looks deeply into another's eyes and listens to the timbre of the voice. Would that all persons might learn these values earlier, That we might have more meaningful life experiences sooner, And understand that such superficiality Is simply a waste of time and life.
