Miss Jenny is stirring things up over on Saturday Centus. This week the rule is 25 words to use with the 5 word prompt (30 words total). Since I'm on my way into work I had to come up with a quick little ditty. I hope this is Jenny-worthy. As always, the prompt is in green.
gray hairs grow longer
old times to ponder
while sipping miralax in morning coffee
I’m not getting any younger
the lost years I hunger
the closer I get to 50!

Nice! I feel just the same. Hit 50 in June but I'm in denial!
I'll be 50 in November, so far I'm ok with it:@)
O.K. ... well put! But stop moaning about 50 .... it'll be great.... it was for me!! Now 70 sounds very strange when I hear myself say it. Afterall, we're just getting better .... now laugh!!
Well done, "youngster" ;-) Ah, but to be 50 again...Peace and blessings
you are only as old as you think you are...smiles.
Ah, yes...50 is when your body's accerator pedal gets stuck and time flies like you are on a downhill ramp with no brakes! Good job with 30 words....
Polly, I would LOVE to be 50 again!!!!
Excellent job ! This made me laugh and reflect like the others who commented. Every day you wake up is a gift !
Ah, to be 50 again! Fear not. It opens you up to be your true self. Darling poem!
Namaste..........cj
Crumbs! I never thought of 50 as old when I was there! ;)
Cute poem. From me to you...here's hoping 50 is the start of the best years of your life!
Miralax in coffee..eeewah! This made me laugh!~Ames
stay where you are, be happy.
aahhh, the sweet years after you turn 50 are rather cool. Great job.
I can relate to this poem. I really like the wording, especially "miralax." Not that I like miralax, but I like your use of it.
Cheers.
