I’m Not Feeling Sixty

I’m not feeling sixty
Though I’m supposed to
Be sixty today
Sixty is going to have to
wait for me
For now, I’ll store it
Away for another time
Maybe bring it out when I’m seventy
Yeah. I’ll be ready for sixty by then
Today I’m dragging fifty out of storage
I had put it in the trunk
For safe-keeping
I’m now ready to put it to good use
It was wasted on me then
Seems my forties wouldn’t let me go
It’s a good feeling
Knowing I’ll feel this way
In another ten years

Good one Rich. We never seem to feel how we look.

My Mother was born on 21st September and for the past 70 years she's always insisted she's 21 today.

Your mother sounds like a grand lady, Ed. Bless her heart. Thanks.

Rich,

Birthdays are good for you.  It's a known medical fact...the more you have the longer you live!
