Do not regard me by my age

I am the sum of my experiences not my years

I had to evolve beyond the trappings

Through years of striving to be genuine

To shake off the shackles of her pomposity

I sought friends who would teach me to

Open my mind to the new

Let me not feel separate from others

Hanging in space and time away from

The experiences that should be mine

Let me show that now I have evolved

into a feeling, writing, creative person

and given myself permission

and time to explore

Tell me not you are 60

Do not presume that I will conform

To your expectation

Of how I should be

Do not regard me by my age
