Nancy Kaufman Poet Light Verse

Men a Pause

I wish to speak for the cause of women now in menopause.
I once heard a man joke or may be it was just a poke.
What really does this stage cause?
Do men now look but yet they pause?
I went thru it so long ago.
It's just a natural ebb and flow.
It causes some changes quite unknown.
I think perhaps my whore did moan.
I never went on hrt's, just let it happen naturally.
I had no rages, no extra fire.
My girth grew wider, my skin grew drier.
I think perhaps that God must jest as suddenly I got my breasts.
It keeps them looking wouldn't you know and saves me from
seeing what happened below.

It doesn't seem fair that women have to go thru so much though, does it?? Have a great day my friend, Nancy
