"On an old wall butterflies hover and flutter 
for my return many, many years after." - avr

"Butterflies are a metaphor representing spiritual 
rebirth, transformation, hope, and life." - avr

                                     “Grow old along with me! 
The best is yet to be, the last of life, 
for which the first was made.”
– Robert Browning*

* English poet and playwright Robert Browning extends an invitation to age well by viewing one’s final years as the best yet to be. He takes it a step further by declaring that our first seasons of life were actually made for enjoying our “last of life.” It’s as if Browning is saying, “Old age, game on!” Internet
