Now that you've turned 50
You're stunning, well-coiffed and smart
On the negative side, there's definite signs
That you're slowly falling apart

Thanks to gravity the boobs are heading south,
You could lose 50 lbs in weight
New wrinkles appear on your forehead
At what seems an alarming rate

On the positive, you're now a psychic
And you look sexier, and how
And as a Wiser Older Women
You're definitely now a WOW !

Expressing yourself honestly and forthrightly
Is a good thing that you've learnt
On the negative side, you're sagging and wrinkling
In places you wish you weren't

Fertility is/will soon be a thing of the past
Memory loss soon will come
Your confidence, over the years, has grown
But so, too, has your bum and tum

Just as you were getting the hang of it
You've started to lose interest in sex
And your arms have suddenly become too short
To read, without your specs

All day hectic shopping trips
Are no longer your idea of fun
Indeed, shopping is now a tedious chore
That simply has to be done

But, in Roman numerals you're now L
So... excel yourself, and go
Embrace the coming years like 'L
Happy Birthday on the big Five-O
