I think you've made lots of good friends here, and there are a few of us watching you battle your way through problems very few could cope with, and you've shown us the love that God spreads abroad through His son, beautifully written Debi, bless you, Roy

Comment from Michele Harber
OMG, Debi, you had me laughing out loud in so many places! This is brilliantly honest and incredibly funny, largely because it is so relatable. I love the idea of the "four guys in [your] bed," and I certainly know what happens "if I laugh too hard or sneeze."
Thank you for a much-needed laugh, which started before your poem, with that absolutely adorable picture!

How could I not have fun with this, Debi? You have such a wonderful sense of humor.
No need to worry about a delayed reply. I just blame it on life, which is always getting in the way. How rude!
Comment from Sabrina H.
I really love the picture with your poem. You took getting older and made it really funny, thank you for that. Your poem is well written with good flow.
Keep writing:)

Debi! I'm of that certain age that when I laugh this hard I can depend on needing DEPENDS!
GREAT poem my friend... sadly I saw myself in every stanza, and as I listened to Jim Croce I wept with tears of joy for what was...and tears for the quantum physics that zoomed me from 20 to 70!
This brings to mind random lines from a long ago poem I penned :
"I think, now, of my shuffling gait
as telling time to slow... to wait.
I know full well my destination'
it's not just that I'm old I'm patient!"
Thank God we're reaching the finishing line (and eternal starting gate) together!
"We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will."

That's what writers do!

Hey Sweetie, thanks for having some fun with me on this and adding your fun poem.
I have thought of a few better guys to go to bed with. You can't but maybe I could try Tom Collin's, Jack Daniel's, and Alexander >
Anyway thanks for the fun review and comments. Also for the bonus stars. So appreciated, my very dear dear friend!
Lotsa Love, Debi

LOL. Those are all good choices. I don't recall the rest of that poem whose lines I wrote spontaneously. It's on my to-do list. Find it... (Egad, that could take months!)
Comment from Iza Deleanu
Hi Debbie, you made me laugh reading this poem, really "And all the changes in my lifetime happened when I blinked
So I'm just hoping the next time won't mean I'll be extinct
My husband knows I have four guys in bed, but not for play
Their names ~ Art-Thritis, Charlie Horse, Will Power and Ben Gay
" Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Comment from Julie Helms
You made a serious topic very amusing. My husband and I often have this conversation about where has time gone? Married 34 years... How is that possible? Sometimes I feel still young on the inside, but something on the outside always reminds me. Your poem very effectively brought forth all these feelings with me!
And I totally love that photograph! Thanks so much for sharing. Julie.

Comment from LateBloomer
Hi Debi, your poem is very cute. I made me laugh, and yes, the years are flying by. I especially liked:
It's been so long since I've been there, I don't know where 'that's' at
(Amen. I'm with you on that one!)
Your poem reads and flows well and has good humor within.
Good rhyming couplets. Adorable photo choice. Well-chosen YouTube. A pleasure to read. Well done. Xo. M

Comment from lyenochka
Lol! I love your humor! And yes, even if we become senile, we'll become friends all over again. I don't use Ben-Gay but I use Aspercreme. I can't make that into a guy's name. Ah, aging!
