today i am now a wise old age!
my man has taken the day off work to celebrate
and he is taking me into the big city
to buy woolly tights
and
to pottle around
a big old bookstore.
there will not be a kitchen appliance
on the car journey
we will listen to classical music
and reminisce about the good old days.
the 29 birthdays and years of mine,
which have come and gone
since we first met
we will both wear our rose coloured specs
and
i have no doubt at all
today i will be most happy
and
today i will be muchly thankful
to be turning 45
