Great Grandeurs
============
When I was in teens
Habituated to wearing crowns of glory
I became a tough knot to my trots

When I was in twenties
I occasioned to glance the grace of love
And wrote poetry in the ecstasy

When I moved to thirties
I had thirst
To own a house ,a car and
Prop up my children


When I opened the doors of forties
Prosecuting children’s education
Was added to budgetary expenditure

When I clasped the tunes in fifties
Snoring started in the roaring lion
With excessive medicare costing high

Now in a year or two
I gate crash to sixties
Expecting new grands to hang on
to my chest keeping the affections stick high

Then I have to look young as I grow older and older
Coloring the gray top to look jet black
And wearing gaudy designs forgetting the past
Keeping the grandies playing on the laps.

a good friend of mine once told me that he's noticed that almost everyone that he's known has become jaded by the age of 25. have you found this to be true at all?
