Sixty-nineA Poem by Bob BWow! I've made it to sixty-nine. I'm feeling sort of lucky To have my health and everything else. Everything's just ducky!
Sixty-nine years behind me… My spring has long ago sprung. When I was a kid, it sounded so old; Now it's sounding young.
Although I'm not a daredevil, Life's been full of adventures. I have a crown or two, but I'm Still not wearing dentures.
Maintaining a curiosity Has been energizing. Does that have something to do with being A Leo with Virgo rising?
Certainly there are things I CAN'T or WILL NOT do. But every day I challenge myself To learn something new.
I'm still a sexagenarian. In one year I'll see My name with the septuagenarians If that's meant to be.
