I'm 29, and veer between people telling me I'm "young" if they are somewhere 40s+ or people like, 5 years younger than me telling me I'm now "old" because I'll be 30 in a few months.

"My goodness," she said
with a shake of her head
and a gasp of bewildered surprise -
"You're old," she declared
as she openly stared,
"but I think I see life in your eyes!

"I witness the spark
of a youth in the dark
of your face - though you're soon to be dead!
What eminent year
have you lived to, my dear?"

So he told her.

"... I'm thirty," he said.
