Turning 60 years of age makes you think of years gone by. I'm no teen, no youngster either, midlife crises left just a sigh Today I've joined a special group, I'm an elderly now you know So I'm getting discount charges everywhere I want to go Turning 60 is a pleasure, can't describe it otherwise All my limbs are getting stiffly, but one has to pay a prize Getting older seemed so far yet, but you get there fast enough Looking back I got my share of joyful sorrow and all that stuff Turning 60 years of age makes you think of years ahead Getting paid for doing nothing is something that makes me glad And they say that older people have the wisdom in their mind But I can't say if that's true though Because my body left my spirit way behind  Like scattered leaves...my words will flow [This message has been edited by Titia Geertman (12-08-2004 03:48 PM).] |

You've got a LONG way to go to catch up to Mum! Congratulations on your attitude at turning another page in your life...when one expresses it as positively as you do, it should give everyone else something to look forward to!  |

Titia: You are what we call a "Spring Chicken", Your best years are still ahead. Take it from one who is well past 60. I enjoy your writing, and always click on your name. Enjoy the rest of your life and may it be a very long one. marty |
