The 'Other Side' of Fifty! by Pam Munson Steadman Monday, June 23, 2008 Rated "PG" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan I’m the other side of fifty And my bark is now my bite!

The Other Side of Fifty! I’ve done the cocktail circuit ‘Have smiled 'till my face aches ‘Now free to be the quirky ME I’m finished with the ‘fakes.’ ‘Sick to death of dinner parties And having to make nice I’d rather be in Vegas ‘Shaking hands with all the dice. ‘Ain’t getting any younger The world is at my feet It’s Paris, Prague, and Budapest And dancin’ in the street! I may have many ailments But the one I like the best Brings joy to me like nothing else *Its name is “Empty Nest!”* So if I swear and gorge bon bons Or stay out late at night I’m the other side of fifty And my bark is now my bite! *Copyright* *2008* *Pamela Munson Steadman*
