Blow Off Poem by Janice M Pickett

Frustration comes with age
Life has turned another page
from youth and its virility
to age and senility
with rosemary, lavendar and sage

The herbs of comfort they say
but that won't take it away
the needs in the heart
that sensitive part
that keeps pumping on
day after day

Age brings wisdom I know
but with age comes
much sorry and woe
when we just look around us
We see with disgust
how people just
go with the flow

Manners are no longer the way
No, not like in your younger day
They don't stand for a senior
when seats are few
and crime on the old
is the way

Now the moral of this story is this
When you're a senior,
your life can be bliss
Just sit back on your butt
give it all that you've got
and blow them all off
with a kiss
