Thoughts on Being Over Fifty...
...in the over-50 Peace Corps:
You, my friend,
Are fifty.
Old enough to-
Speak your mind
Abandon convention
Decide for yourself
Surprise the heck out of them
Welcome your spirit
Be a kid when you want
Worship the sun
Nurture free time
Travel the world
Relish alone time
Feel like a woman
Grab the brass ring
Enjoy being alive
Kick up a storm
Master singing and dancing
And wish upon a star
To follow who you are
At fifty.
