A woman of 60
gives up certain things,
like bikinis, short shorts
and tight-fitting jeans,
She gives up on other things too,
like caring a whole lot
about whether you approve.
She’s not in the mood
to smile or please,
she has no patience
for things like these,
Her arms are open to grandchildren
Her heart opens wide to let them in,
She has lived long enough
to take life in stride,
Go forward in faith
because somehow, you survive,
The fragrance of rose, or hyacynth
brings joy of the moment
and utter content,
Each day is a blessing,
and laughter is sweet,
Time spent with loved ones
is all you really need.
