NOT OVER THE HILL

By J P Henderson-Long

 

I refuse to believe

that I'm over the hill,

I have life experience.

I have life skill.

I'm wiser than wise

in the ways of the world;

I've learned many lessons

as life has unfurled.

I feel that its time

to let you all know,

I'm pleased with my lot,

I continue to grow.

I'm not quite prepared

to give up the fight

nor vanish, forgotten,

or fade with the night.

This life is just great!

This life is just heaven!

Who would believe I'm

just forty-seven!

So build up your confidence,

work on that smile.

You'll find that it's worth it

mile after mile.

Mile after mile,

there's so much to do!

Over the hill?

I'm not! Are you?
