    I'm 50- What Does It All Mean?

    I'm 50 What Does It All Mean?
                                  By Brianlion
    I'm 50. What does it all mean?
    I'm not quite senile, but I may be obscene.
    I'm way past middle age, but not quite a senior.
    I guess I'm somewhere in between.
    I'm 50. What does it all mean?

    I'm 50, I'm not really sad about it,
    But I'm certainly not giddy.
    As my kids and grandchildren say, you're fiddy.
    Whether it's fiddy, 40 + 10, or E. Gordon Giddy.
    There's no escaping it- I'm 50.

    I'm 50. The big 5-0h.
    I lost my 6 pack abs, I lost my thick black hair.
    Who am I kidding. I even lost my mojo.
    I'm 50, so please allow me to whine.
    But I should be happy.
    I heard age 50 is the new 39.

    I'm 50. What does it all mean?
    I can't turn back the clock.
    But please allow me to dream.
    I can look 20 again with a face lift,
    tummy tuck, hair dye, and anti-aging cream.

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
