Gracefully Aging

The best is yet to come.

Age is only a number

Kick up your heels and dance

Run jump celebrate

Whenever you get the chance

You are only as old as you think

Bring out your inner child

Run barefoot in the grass

Let your imagination go wild

Think happy thoughts watch cartoons

Bathe in the sun count the stars

Go howling at the moon

Live love eat pray

Leave your mark on every day

Wear vibrant colors laugh out loud

Sing silly songs get lost in a crowd

Run through the rain

Skinny dip in a pool

Don’t mind the looks

You see on anyone’s face

You are living in style

Aging with grace

Doing it your way

Having so much fun

Isn’t that the way

It’s suppose to be done
