Bathing Suit

Had to order a bathing suit
I looked on Amazon
I googled  “A suit for old women”
To wear in the Florida sun.

It has a skirt that covers a lot
My stomach is hidden away
Gone are the days when I was fine,
My hair is turning gray.

But growing old is not so bad
as long as you find what suits.
Mature women’s wear hides some flaws
and still looks somewhat cute.
