The Older Woman and the Younger Man

The older woman
is secretly defiant
loud in her riot
but quite in her thoughts

The older women
does more, yet she shouldn't
to make you a servant
but not intently...she thought

The older woman
is a brat and a tyrant!
but not to show side rants
just to you, she will talk

The older woman
is still very vibrant
she begs for your input
and dances for your shock

The younger man
would seem rather bland
no ventures are in him
needs more to expand

The younger man
has many waves
but you won't hear a single crash
he has no interest in being rash

The younger man
won't even plan
he'll just think of things as he goes
and goes on things as he thinks

The younger man
is dazed and easy going
simplistic and realistic
would drive the older woman, out of statistics!

A younger man and older woman
can't go on a date
"why not?" the younger man says
"Cause you're five years too late!"
