Helen Carlyle used to live in Malvern. She's written a series of hilarious poems in a book called Age Rage. Here's some of her work...
Isn't it time you retired, Molly? Should you be making a move? Your time-keeping's taken a definite dip, Efficiency's fallen, you're losing your grip! You're way over 60, and fit for the tip! Perhaps you've got stuck in a groove?
Isn't it time you retired, Molly? Shouldn't you be on your way? You've scuppered the printer, disabled the phone, And that little lot cost five hundred alone! Yet when anything breaks, you're the first one to moan! The expensive bit's letting you stay!
Isn't it time you retired, Molly? Won't听you be far听better off? A nice little pension, a cottage in France? With early retirement, you'd get an advance. So grab it and go, while you've still got the chance! The sunshine might clear up your cough!
