Tip Me Over

Aging Teapot

Can our later years be times of great usefulness --
when we are privileged to pour out what's been poured into us?

Here's a well-used teapot,

neither short or stout 

with one broken handle

and a slightly cracked spout.

When life steeps within this old teapot

just tip . . . 
it over, 
let wisdom pour out.
