The Gold Watch

A spinster whom just earned her pension
Faced her fate with some apprehension
Though never a bride
She still had her pride
But old men can't jump to attention!

G’day Rico … sounds like she missed the bus Rico. Oh well, she’ll just have to pray for a midnight burglar to break in now and not turn on the light - thanks Rico - Lindsay

From what I have heard, there is a delay between swallowing the pill and springing to action. Does that mean seniors need a nap in between? Aloha! Rico
