I was fit and feisty at fifty <br />It was no big deal <br />Because that's how half a century <br />Is supposed to feel. <br /> <br />In my sixties I'll take stock <br />Start making new plans <br />Ignoring all the cant's <br />Embracing all the can's. <br /> <br />Can I be sexy at sixty? <br />And try all the fashion and fads <br />Wear stockings an suspenders <br />And Joan Collins shoulder pads. <br /> <br />I can deal with sexy at sixty <br />And wear Vivienne Westwood clothes <br />Dress up and go out on the town <br />Wearing all my buttons and bows. <br /> <br />I'm going to be sexy at sixty <br />I'll wear Gok Wan lingerie <br />Find myself a toy boy <br />Then maybe lead him astray. <br /> <br />Swift and sexy at sixty <br />When I get my Jimmy Choos <br />Dancing the night away <br />To the sound of Rhythm and Blues. <br /> <br />Oh! I want to be sexy at sixty <br />Cause age is a state of mind <br />I'm preparing my body at keep fit <br />So as not to be left behind. <br /> <br />But first I have to deal with <br />Old skin, bad teeth, grey hair <br />Then remove the unwanted growths <br />From just about everywhere. <br /> <br />Then! I'll definitely be sexy at sixty <br />And undoubtedly done it all <br />The only problem is that most of it <br />I simply won't recall.<br /><br />Hazel Connelly<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sexy-at-sixty/
