Nature's Cruel Ways

It doesn't seem that long ago, we frolicked on the beach,
Built castles in the sand,
Walked together hand in hand;
The whole world was at our feet.
We were innocent and sweet.

We bloomed into young women and took on the world out there;
Each morning brought new challenge,
And we were strong and sure and
Confident we'd find our ways.
You'd agree: Those were the days!

But time and life do take their toll, and now we do grow old.
O'er time we wed, and then we bred;
We raised our kids, oh, yes we did.
And cellulite snuck in o'er night--
And our backside view's now quite the sight!
