MIDLIFE BLUES
They (whomever "they" maybe)
"Endlife" for we obviously!
Puhleeeeze Oprah "Midlife" is not easy!!!
Maybe Rich, but I'm a poor beauty.
Endlife means hair stops growing
'Cept Moustache and chin, flowing
Upper arms slowly grow into wings!
No sleeveless shirts-eagle fledlings.
Endlife when your tummy is your rear?
Coming or going in front of a mirror?
To get your mammogram is great!
Year to year I can hardly wait.
'Tis the only time anyone asks me
"Take off your bra, so we can see!"
Surprize....they resemble your belly
Flat-not filled, and floppy.
Recalling your days before crisis.
Firm, standing, with boldness.
Older ladies looked at us enviously.
Like our rears, long and dumpy!
Endlife brings much memory loss.
Retain only water and dental floss.
President of the Varicose Vein Club
Short-shorts out, naked only in bathtub.
Endlife brings more reflection.
"Where's my body all of a sudden?
Life started out so firm so sweet,.....
Where do I click to delete!!!"
Ahhhhh but Midlife brings appreciation,
Worthy knowledge, our minds broaden.
Our bodies expand to hold it double?
Which? Young body or knowledge truthful?
Call the mortician, I'd rather die....
All over again? Not you nor I....
Said with conviction and a sigh....
Not Midlife, but Endlife...that's why!
Created in my own words,
from an email sent to me
by a dear friend
The poem is mine.

Please don't take me wrong....
I love being old, even if I can't
wear a thong....
I have lots of friends you see....
Comfortable at last, we only see
what we used to be!
And, I might add.........that's the way
it should be!
*Endlife grins!*

| woah that was a really entertaining write and made me think. obviously im too young too really contemplate being old, but i dont know about those who try to look 20 at 60 by having plastic here and there. at any age you can still be a great person, that's the main thing. nice write. chris. |
