Ask Me How 70 Was In December

Your prompt and mission is to write me a poem/lyrics with the subtitle Ask me in December, Babs' unofficial Challenge.

So far, so good! A birthday trip with my children in January. February brought a Poem a Day in February, complete with contests and prizes and so much fun. In March I completed a 28 day reboot to declutter.

At 69, I realized just how much stuff I have and how I don't want my children or anyone to have to get rid of all that I have collected over time. Living in the same house since 1997 adds to the clutter. I'm continuing with the decluttering.

Now for the poem:

Declutter me this year

It will cause me to drop a tear

Maybe two or more

I'm not for shore

~

How will this year go?

I am looking forward to know

Can I wait until December

I could go to a lender

Or maybe go on a bender

~

Not!

Just a quick thought

I don't do that anymore

It will be forty-four

sober years in September

another celebration to remember

~

I could borrow money to have it done

Then that would be no fun

I have to sort through it

I have so much s-it

Time to take a break and sit

No need to get lit

I could use to get fit

~

Okay, lots to do as a 70-year-old

Hoping to make this year gold!
