On Turning Fifty

Oh Yes! Oh Yes! My time has come This half a century, a life full of fun My childhood filled with happiness and glee Parents loving, supporting, chastising me Driving cars, a twenty first party Married, own house, feeling like a smarty Career in the making, reaching thirty Childbirth came late, nearly thirty eight Forty was tough, divorce, single life followed Back to the family, dent in pride and wallowed Directional change, new chapters began On turning fifty, hoped for a nifty man. Optimistic fifty, flirty and free Hey there you! Looking at me.
