Keeping In Stride : Mother Poetry

written by Writer : Paul McCann


 

By Paul McCann

At 85 my mother's positively aging

and still as a sharp as a pin .

She does Tai Chi , Kung Fu , Karate ,
She's got aqua gym and she still likes a swim .

She might be an old woman but she's quick

with her whit and she's   85 years young .


She means what she says and she'd cut you in two

with the flick of the edge of her tongue .


She has a way about her and if you listen

you might hear what she has to say  .


So if you know what I mean you better watch your step

if she ever comes  your way .

 

By Paul McCann
