Absolutely Howard! This is what i believe too. Age is just a number. It is the mind, the attitude, the work, the service that counts in life. Wonderful four liner poem!

Age Equals Just A Number? ? ? .........[ Inspired By Age Is Just A Number By Howard Simon, On P H; SHORT; Aging; Poetry ] Age MAY be just a number. What's YOUR number this year? But age brings much more than numbers, none of which I fear! Age has a way of creeping up on men & women; it may on YOU. But even if your number's up, your poems will still be **. It is true.

Age is just a number- a record of your score- - brilliant- a very good short poem- -
Age is a state of mind. I know people who are 40 and are so worn out that they look twice their age. And then there are those who are 40 and look 20. There are those who are 30 and have the wisdom of a lifetime. And those who are 50 and have the intelligence of a teenager. Even with my physical ailments, I don't feel even close to 65! Thank you, Howard for your reinforcement and positivity!
Right. We all need to think this way. Age doesn't matter, thinking does. Stay young at heart and you remain so. I liked this idea that age is just a number, for being a woman my biggest worry has to be aging. Haha.
With age we gain wisdom and a better insight into life in general, that will bring out the best in us all! Great write!
Poem is well written, Age is just a number, may be for some record purpose. A definite number nothing more nothing less. Beautiful message....stand strong and be your best! Loved reading it.
Very true said - Age is just a number; as Time is just a concept.

Very true, Howard, especially the higher that number doth rise on us....lol! Age is no different than an I.Q....It's all about tapping the best of your maximized potential... I know certified geniuses who if I were in a fox-hole, I' d have to rely solely on myself to get both he and me out alive! Same goes for age...aside from illness out of ones control...age, in general can be a competitors edge when it comes to such importances as Wisdom, Acumen, Experience(with & without the ladies...HaH!) as well as years of memories, and eventually retirement, hopefully someplace like St. Croix! Good stuff in this succinct yet very compendious solo quatrain.~FjR~
At an old age take your time. Don’t be in a hurry, don’t be nervous. Fear for northing. Just live and take pleasure!
