And thus our glorious life has been reduced to....faded old jeans! ! ! Even after jumping on the Moon, garnering Nobel prizes, defying gravity, and doing a zillion miraculous, god-like things...we are reduced to...faded old jeans! ! Rajda, you are an incurable romantic...I'm curious which brand of jeans you (used to) wear..! ! Cheers. Subroto

Will find them outdated and worn out one day, Like those faded jeans they are wearing today! *' Every senior citizen has to take this taste! You have written this wonderful poem with that delicate issue. Love with 10+++
