I’m not old I’m well used and comfortable Those sharp edges that used to cut so deep Are now rounded and rubbed smooth The acid on my tongue Has turned to smooth glibness That I acquired with age Sort of like that smooth custard They sell at Ted Drews My words no longer choke But go down easy Kinda like I used to When the mood hit me I’m a good old girl And I use the word old in jest I must assure you again I’m not old I’m just reaching my prime And thats all I have to say

Sue, first we (the over 50 crowd) have had quite a larger learning curve in life, which has made our aging a bit more of a smooth ride. Keep screaming, it looks good on you.

Peace,
Dan

Love the description...and in time we all round out those sharp edges to discover what lay underneath all the time. Superb work.

Amen! We certainly are not old, we just age like fine wine. :P Thank you for sharing this wonderfully light poem of graceful aging.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), sister Barbie
