Never Too Old

Never Too Old

Louise and Martine Fokken
Have finally called it quits
No more late night rendezvous
And sharing of their “bits”
No longer young like 69
They are 70 in age
And want to find another way
To earn a decent wage
For more than 50 years these twins
Reverted to their roots
Worked and lived in Amsterdam
As private prostitutes
There’s a minimum age for doing so
Set at 21
But no limit at the higher end
“Play” as long as you’re having fun
But the tax man and arthritis
Have made the girls think twice
They’re hanging up there mattresses
And giving up that vice
I laughed when I read the story
Can’t imagine “grandma’s“do it
But since I’m only 64
I guess I could pursue it
