A New Poem, Tell Me What You Think?

A little repetative, a little contrasting, but overall very good. I'm not entirely sure I understood the meaning, but, nonetheless it was good. It has a certian flow, its better read slowly, and the depression in the poem just makes it all the more worthwhile to read! I like all of the reference to age, well, thats what I got from it anyways, in the withered people, weathered hands, and so on. Great job!
