I was fit and feisty at fifty It was no big deal, Because that's how half a century Is supposed to feel. In my sixties I'll take stock Start making great plans, Ignoring all the "you cant's" And embracing all the "I cans". Can I be **** at sixty? And try all the fashions and fads, Wear stockings and suspenders And Joan Collins shoulder pads. I can deal with **** at sixty And wear Vivienne Westwood clothes, Dress up and go out on the town Wearing all my buttons and bows. I'mgoing to be **** at sixty I'll wear Gok Wan lingerie Find myself a Toy Boy Then maybe lead him astray. Swift and **** at sixty When I get my Jimmy Choos, Dancing the night away To the sound of rhythm and blues. Oh! I want to be **** at sixty 'cause age is a state of mind, I'm preparing my body at keep fit So as not to be left behind. But, first I have to deal with Old Skin, Bad Teeth and Grey Hair, Then remove the unwanted growths From just about everywhere. Then I'll definitely be **** at sixty And undoubtedly done it all, The only problem is that most of it I simply won't recall... © Hazel

**** at SIXTY
