I think grumpy old women have similar thoughts, lol. You've done a marvelous job with those 25 words, it's fun, it rhymes, and brings on a smile. Well done, and good luck in the contest, I'm sure you have a winner here. :)) Sandra xx

Oh if only. At my age and the shape I am currently in. The ability to walk briskly would be a blessing. I fear that any attempt to chase a young hen around the yard would be laughed at so hard, that I might actually be able to sneak up on her while she is bent over laughing.

I know not who you are, but buy a car from the sixties, put down the top, drive to the beach, set in the sun, watch the boys and girls have fun, and maybe you'll get lucky, though more than likely if you do it will be a dream.

Excellent entry for the 25 Words writing prompt contest. Good word count. I like the presentation.

Your poem is heartfelt and I agree. We should treat our elders with respect.

Good luck in the contest.

A fun poem - but we all have to face reality sooner or later. However no-one deserves to be made to feel like a has-been, regardless. Sending you best wishes for your entry.

Yeah, author, you hit the nail with the bat. :) As we age our younger selves often forget or treat us like we are not there. Yet, we walked in their shoes and know why. "Out with the old and in with the new." Is the cycle of life. Good entry for the 25-word Poem Contest. Thank you for caring.

I don't remember giving you permission to write about me. You have done a really good job on the prompt, and you have managed to rhyme all the lines.
