I'm Not a Dirty Old Man by Michael I’m eighty eight and still have hair and still some teeth to chew my food, a little gray, just here and there, but I’m still a good looking dude. Well, just about four months ago, when my wife let me out a bit, some lady smiled and winked at me. My legs felt weak, I had to sit. I dreamed about her late that night. My heart beat so, I thought I’d die. I need to settle these old nerves. Next time I’ll cover up one eye. I still have lots of things they’d like. At least, I like to think I do. Just how do you talk to a girl? Been so long, I don’t have a clue. I don’t want you to think I’m scared. I still have eyes that roam a bit, but thought of dating one these days, just wears me out, I’d rather sit. I think Sandra Bulloch’s a babe and what a smile with all those teeth. I thought I'd write her a love poem, but know my wife would give me grief. Don’t think I’m a dirty old man. It’s not my fault that ladies look. Of chasing one, I have no plan. I’d rather sit and read a book. Hey Marge, have you seen my glasses and have you seen my partial plate? I left it in the glass last night when I was staying up so late. Now my wife still has the right stuff, but that gravity sure is mean. We married sixty years ago. She was the cutest thing I’d seen. But even so, she’s aged real well. I wouldn’t have another girl. She’s prettier than all the rest and just as rare as an old pearl. Michael Auguste~ |
