Menopausal moments, it's hot in here!
Hormones taunting, "the end is near"
Hot flashes that seem to last for days
My Mother confirms, I'm in that stage

Gravity is working on this body of mine
Aging daily like a dry sweet wine
My joints are cracking, my muscles ache
The joys of womanhood, the masquerade

I'm still just a kid, and always will be
But you can't tell just by looking at me
My hair is graying, but not my heart
The hell with nature, I'll end where I start
< !signature-->

 Work like money doesn't matter, love like you've never been hurt, dance like nobody's watching...

This is too cute. Many truths spoken here.
The outside can be fixed it's the heart that bares our age. Your as old as you feel.

When you can't make up your mind
Which way is right for you,
Stop and softly ask yourself,
What Would Jesus Do?

LoL, this is great!

 Did Jesus laugh?
I think He did,
'cause He was once
a little kid;
and all of us
were made with joy
both sugar-spice girl
and snake-snail boy!
