MEN-A-PAUSE

When a man reaches 45 he starts to feel contented,

he begins to enjoy the things he once strongly resented,

like having his own armchair parked near the fire,

slipperson, feet up, is now his hearts desire.



He NOW loves his wifes cooking, even her toast,

his favourate is definitlythe wifes Sunday roast,

noticing he's overweight he'll painfully admit

walking the dog is the best way to keep fit.



He's given up having nights out with the boys,

no longer craves dolly birds to be his toys,

his wild days he's tucked away in the past

and he freely admits he's settled at last.



Because he now knows he cant take the worry

he does everything in less of a hurry.

Now he is preparing to escape the rat-race

and is looking forward to life at a much slower pace.



Gone is his fancy for having a wild fling,

he finally realises at Home he's got EVERYTHING

his ambition now is to carefully Invest

for the GoldenYears of Old Age when he can rest.......
