I borrowed a cue from The Wino. Then I threw in a little Billy Joel and topped it off with my own insatiable need to rhyme. So reflect with me, won’t you?
In the year of 42
I became a Jew
With furrowed brow
I say Oy Vey now
I pray to the retinol gods
Jealous of 20-something bods
Dress too young for my age
Still have plenty of road rage
Saw Bruce Springsteen rock
Got a boat but no dock
Started sporting glasses
Accepted the masses
Celebrated 11 years with Hubby
(we both got a bit chubby)
Felt hurt and taken for granted
Started a blog and ranted
Lived way beyond my means
Realized a few dreams
Joined Facebook
Still can’t cook
Became a fan of the Crimson Tide
Ohio accent still can’t hide
Licked my ER addiction
Voted in a big election
Changed my hair from long to short
Enjoyed plenty of giggle-snorts
Would turn back the clock if I could
But life is still very good.
