40 PLUS It’s been a few months today Since I joined the 40 plus Some see twilight at this age While “life begins” for the rest of us … Many are proud of our temples grey Other’s hate the stubble white About a third feel sluggish all day As many pop Valium at night. Life races by, much faster past Takes more, to keep up with time Blood sugar and cholesterol Befriend us in this age prime. We wake up to an aching back, Can’t start the day sans morning tea – And by the time we are wide awake The world is waiting for you and me ! Decisions ! Actions ! Strategies, plans ! Hours tick by in a jiffy .. A hurried lunch (lovingly packed) And endless cups of coffee and tea Later in the evening, fresh from a bath An hour of active ‘fatherhood’ Hearing out domestic woes Life has NEVER been THIS good ! ~Stranger~
