Eighteen four times over

Poetry 1 Minute

I’m eighteen four times over

Or is it seventy two?

Birthdays? 

There’ve been too many

And yet I still want more.

I don’t mind getting older

The worst thing’s when you stop

Just try to stay fit and healthy

And make the most of life.

You have to keep on pushing

And not accept decline

I won’t give in too quickly

There’s life to be lived yet.

I am a regular contributor to Wattpad where I write as andrewagreen. My first two collections on Wattpad were featured. My first published book Margaret’s Story - a biography of my mother in verse is available on Amazon. I live near Windsor, Berkshire and have offered my services, so far unsuccessfully, as the next Poet Laureate.
