A chapter in the book 2024 Gypsy's Tanka
The Birthday Girl
by Gypsy Blue Rose
dedicated to all the birthday girls
The Birthday Girl no more innocence no more walks on the beach no more looking for treasures no more playing in the sea as a child the beach was a wonderland with fishstars, smooth stones, blue smooth glass, seashells, and mom's delicious snacks as a young woman the ocean meant romance passion and dance but all of that is gone meditating cross-legged facing Mother Ocean the ebb carries her old memories into the sea all and all she has no regrets today is her birthday one year more
one year less
she is comforted with a thought, getting old is not bad— it means you're still alive

This free verse poem is about growing old from a woman's perspective.
This is just a poem. Many older women have full happy lives, they are vibrant, and in good health. But most women can probably relate more or less.
Thank you very much for your time and kind review.
