I turned 57 today,
life is still like a big
churn of buttermilk at times
It can be wonderful then go sour as a lime
My mind says you can do things,
but my body at times sings out a different tune
Soon I will be facing the golden years
what is those for most of us
they are filled with tears and fears of getting older.
some of us become a host for others to scam and use
I would like to say to those individuals we might be older but we are not dumb
I have notice the slowing of my metabolism
it has slowed down to a crawl
so now I have to eat a lot or raw vegetables
For some of us our hearing is going
and our energy level well talk about try sowing a few wild Oats
the music I use to dance to
why if I tried that now it sure would not be a prance
my size 6 pants
well the fix for them has become a size twelve
Hey I love birthdays
I am glad they come once a year
If I decide to drink a beer it had better be low calorie
I love cake to
my body tells me all you are going to do is ache
after all the exercise to shed the pounds it makes
around the middle of my belly and hinny
The one and most thing I do enjoy
is all my beautiful cards and well wishes from my host of family and friends
because you see that is what makes a birthday the most.
