Did this aging twice-married baby boomer miss anything?


In the womb
Baby’s room.
Hugs and kisses
Birthday wishes.


Playing games
Calling names.
Learning lessons
Necking sessions.


Love and sex
Marriage next.
Working hard
Kids in yard.


Get in debt
Learn to fret.
Wanting more
Out the door.


Brand new life
No more strife.
Doesn’t last
Time goes fast.


Silver hair
Medicare.
Wrinkled skin
Patience thin.


Heart condition
In remission.
Hearing’s gone
Won’t be long.


Taking pills
Writing wills.
Time to go
End of show.

An ontological social... "The Performance" sings the facts of life.

In admiration,

This is as enjoyable as the circus! Great rhythm and rhyme. I see kids jumping rope as they recite it. Cheers
