The Odd Couple

The evenings are getting chilly Time for the woolly socks and trackies to come out My body is strange at the moment It’s the coming of Winter Yet my fan is still my constant companion I sleep out on the lounge I’m finding the bed too uncomfortable What I have is called ‘Menopause’ It’s the changing of life From what…I do not know So while I’m rugging up at times I’m trying to cool myself off at other times The sweat stays at the back of my neck My hair all wet Meanwhile my daughter is in her room Winter P.J’s and heater on What an odd couple we make. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ©copyright Juanita Torr ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
