Like Benjamin Button

I wish I could be like Benjamin Button Me oh my wouldn’t that be sumthin My hair would grow thicker no longer thin and grey From winter’s cold December I’d progress back to May Stronger much faster my body restored No nursing home for me I would never be bored. Enjoying my retirement again but in reverse The best part of it all no need for a hearse. Then back to work life at the peak of my career Cash for me to spend on those who are dear Life would be much better my thoughts growing clearer My looks would start improving as I looked in the mirror In a matter of years I’d be back in school University days sweet a time to be cool Savouring each moment stopping to smell each flower Romance back to innocence reclaiming youthful power Then becoming a child delightful and free No more big worries or responsibility I’d go from toddler wobbles to a baby so sweet Giggles and tickles mom rubbing my feet My earthly needs met cuddly comfort and love Affectionate eyes so adoring looking down from above If like Benjamin Button my life was lived reversed Would I have lived it better being it was formerly rehearsed? Inspired by the movie Benjamin Button staring Brad Pitt.
