A few years ago when my eldest boy

Was still at primary school

He took Jasper with him.

This is a stone

Reputed to have mystical properties.

After school I asked how his day had gone.

"It was like I was famous" he said.

"Girls were chasing me

All over the playground,

It was horrendous!"

"I'm taking another one tomorrow!"

wake up and forgive your wrinkles...*

Women. Drink cultural Kool-Aid. Believing it.
Grey is old is ugly is useless. So very wrong.
Not fruit for one picking. Fecund. Many harvests.
Fifty is not over. Nor 60. Simply is. Immortal desire.
Time makes changes in everyone. In X and in Y.
Every human age has its own allure. Wake up.
Each woman, any moment, beautiful in her own way.
     Lovely laughter, soul, thoughts, feelings, touch.
     Forgive the lines around your eyes and such.
     Worthy of desire. Desirable. Desired. Much.
