The Change!

When I was a kid we called it the ‘change’
or sometimes just ‘Middle age spread,’
but when just like you,
I also went through,
this passage that we ladies dread!
I always would have, a fan in my hand,
and I checked that a ‘ladies’ was near.
At meetings I’d stand
dripping sweat , fan in hand
saying ‘sorry I feel a bit queer!’
I’d stand straight and tall
pressed against a cold wall,
until the heat flash had defused..
Then confusion would reign
and I’d sweat all again
‘Menopause’ it just gives me the blues!!!

Hi Tony, love your comments and thank you for them and hope it sheds a little light on something that half the world may one day experience...This happened to me so often when chairing a meeting that my colleagues used to say I was ‘ walling’ a meeting as most of the time I would be plastered against the nearest available cool wall..Although not necessarily comedic I did find it helped to try to deal with things in a lighthearted way.Thank you again dear friend! Xx
