Fifty Years


The sun
fiercely fought the darkness
until every inch of the room
was filled with its light

I couldn’t pretend any longer
and unfortunately
neither could my bladder
so I slowly
and with great effort
swung my legs over the side of the bed

I had to sit there for a moment
to loosen my joints
and allow the night’s aches
to crack and pop their way to freedom

I finally stand
and it hits me,
I think we need a new mattress
so I turn to look at my lovely wife
and before I could say anything
my darling wife of fifty years says
“Shut up Earl, we just bought a new one a month ago. You’re old ok, get over it”

Wow, you all are truly making me feel as if I actually can write. I always think that my poems are probably half as good as they could be. I drive Laura329 crazy most of the time because I keep telling her how I feel when it comes to writing. I truly truly truly thank each of you for your kind words.
