Lives Her Way
/Vintage biker's jacket
Boots thigh high
Tartan pashmina
Sartorial rules don't apply
Black eyeliner just so
Long gray hair
Artfully arranged topknot
Sophisticated air
Antique pearls
One amber hoop earring
Silver bangles
Forever tinkling
Drinks champagne
Occasionally swears
Talks with her hands
Mediterranean flair
Raucous laugh
Energises everyone
Ageing disgracefully
Determined on fun
Edging nine decades
Lives her way
Done so all her life
She is proud to say
