I Have Come of Age

I'VE COME OF AGE July 22nd 1947 to July 22nd 2012 I have come of age today sixty-five years old, I am of the age for Social Security, or in some places, Old-age pension, I am of the age to receive Reduced Metro fare card, or as in other places Free bus pass, Free rides on the ferry, even reduced air fare. I have my AARP card and a list of all the places that offer discounts and Freebees. I can demand those special seats on the bus or train that's set aside for the Elderly and Disabled I am offically a Senior Citizen, A Seasoned Saint, or whatever you choose to call me. I can complain if I choose to, but why should I? God has blessed me with good health and strength, Yes, the ticker is still ticking, The engine is still running, even though some parts need a little oiling sometimes. I can say and do whatever I please as long as I don't break the law. I will enjoy every minute of this time that God has given me. This is my time and I will proudly shout, I HAVE FINALLY COME OF AGE!
