I am just me
Yes, I am only me…
A person once careworn
And now, a bit carefree…
I like to sit and read
A life of contentment lead
To rudeness pay no heed
I just trim off the weed…
Mostly I do smile
And try to hide a frown
For it is now quite easy
To wear a thorny crown.
The years have mellowed me
For I know right from wrong
I ignore the rotten apples
For my spirit is still strong
Some days I am merry
And bubbling to the brim
On Others I am serious
Though never really grim.
The years have been a challenge
That I rose up to meet
So that, today, the future
I can, serenely, greet.
In myself, I am quite happy
I, do not, company need
But am equally content
To mingle, and to meet.
It has taken me years
To escape from my cage
Yes, it has taken me eons
To reach this mellow stage
