GROWING OLD---A DAY AT A TIME




It's birthday week
The child within me claps to celebrate
Foolish old woman that I am
I'll be 69 this week
If I don't get hit by a truck before Saturday

I look in the mirror and laugh
As the question, "How did this happen?"
Comes to my mind
How many thousands of people
Have had the same experience
The stages of life are lessons in humility
For us all

My poor old laptop computer
Acted so badly
I thought I'd have to buy a new one
But a technician told me to upgrade to Window's 10
I'm doing that now
Perhaps that's how I'll view my birthday this year
I will upgrade to Beth 69
