Old Women

To Be Old (On a Bad Day)

If I could pick a perfect world        

I’d not be sick or angry.     

I’d jump and skip and run to show

my kids That I’m not crazy

I’d surely skip the seven sins       

To Heaven I’ll be heading.           

Regardless of the consequence 

Of all the books I’m reading.

I’m just so happy I can say.                                   

I’m grateful for the many

Friends I’ve met along the way    

Too bad you have not any
