When and Then

I sat and wondered
How by plan can I grow up
When I'm sixty-four

Grandkids all love me
I loved them too with envy
I loved sixty-four

Best of times it was
Had no pain, no worries then
Young at sixty-four

Can't remember now
Think I may never grow up
'Cause I'm eighty-four

NOTE:  I am not 84 years old yet.  I did beat 64 though,.  My poet obviously writes about one who is 84.   I love the Beatle song about that 64, "When I'm sixty-four" lyrics

Today I'm linked with the Real Toads, Words Count with Mama Zen
Each verse must be under 140 characters and spaces for her.  I am at 62, 65, 67, and 64.  Probably add two more characters on each for the line returns.

Grey Cat



Grey Cat

Grey cat is sleeping
While she sleeps she is watching
She is watching you
Give the grey cat a biscuit
Rub her neck. She will love you



On the road today
Driving today to Houston 
Find me a grey cat
She will sleep on my doorstep
Biscuits, rubs--will she love me?
