In Various Ways
"Life after fifty is nifty"
There's much to see and do
Adult children are delightful
Some hobbies to pursue
Each year lived grows more precious
Aware of each year a gift
There is beauty unseen waiting
To give the soul a lift
Dawn feeds the spirit's deep longings
To reach out and commune
In quiet solitude nature
Sings morn's wake up tune
Life after sixty grows harder
Aches and pains touch most days
Treasure each second spent sharing
Love in various ways
