Lovely haiku, Kelly. I can absolutely see you doing this. You will always have that youthful quality. Even 15 years ago in Buenos Aires you had that youthful quality. I know. We were 25 - 27 then and that is young. Still, at this age many are already cynical and you were not/ are not
Johanna, I like your haiku also. It’s amazing as we age how different we feel and how the same. A part of me still feels like a girl, too. And a Happy Birthday to you, too!

Happy upcoming birthday to you Johanna!
We all need to find little private moments to adjust, don’t we?

in mind’s blurry eye
still in the prime of my youth
spirit wills, flesh weak.
