Inspiration Monday VIII prompt:
Come and play along!
I USED TO BE SOMEONE ELSE
I used to be a little girl
With blond curls
Living in a care-free world.
Then I became a teen
Gullible and green
Beauty unseen.
Twenties brought something more,
Husband, daughter, retriever, Lord
Safe and secure.
Thirties, decade of loss
Bearing the cross
Silver from dross.
Forties were a torrent
Time spent
Not sure where it went.
The fifties arrived
Still alive
Beginning to thrive.
