You're Only As Old As You Think You Are
Natasha Josefowitz

This is a time in my life
that l don't want to miss -
old age is a privilege
denied to a lot o f people
and the best way to avoid
becoming an old dog
is to keep learning
new tricks

I always say that age
is only important
if you happen to be
wine or cheese
Yet when l get out of the shower
I am relieved that the mirror
is all fogged up
l have also noticed that
I'm beginning to decline a lot of offers -
preferring to stay home -
which is probably why they
call these the "declining years"

After middle-age spread
I look forward to old-age shrinkage
and I'm much too wise
to ever want to be young again
