Getting Older

There are advantages

To getting much older,

Of wisdom with age

You become the beholder,

 

Fluffy pink slippers,

Become your best friend,

You wear them so often

You invent a new trend,

 

All those grey hairs

That you dye a light brown,

Find a new hiding place

A bit further down,

 

But that's not a problem

You shouldn't care,

Cos you'll find you go bald

So no more trimming down there!,

 

When you get on the bus

You get the front seat,

There's old person stickers

Now isn't that sweet?,

 

When you get grumpy

Fed up and cross,

You can say it's your age

So who gives a toss,

 

Then there's the expanding

Waistline and bum,

Just laugh at all those

Who have got it to come,

 

So getting much older

Isn't really so scary,

You'll be so much smarter

And finally less hairy!

A poem I wrote for my sister for her birthday. Luckily she has a good sense of humour.
