Never trust anyone over thirty.
That's what the hippies used to say
back in the day.
When I turned thirty,
I suddenly felt very old.
I moped around the bunkhouse
for weeks and weeks.
Eventually I got over it.
Turning forty didn't bother me,
and neither did fifty.
Sixty was no trouble at all,
and seventy was the same.
Eighty kinda makes me wince a little bit.
A very entertaining write. Fun and witty lines on aging crafted with ease and cleverness. Liked reading it.

Thanks for commenting, Smoky, but who the heck is Benny Hilo? Pardon my ignorance...
