By June Gregorzek
As a teenager all I wanted was breasts,
But instead I got bumps,
Where was the rest?
I failed the pencil test my girlfriends could do,
My pencil fell to the floor and hit my shoe.
You stayed flat through my teens
And into my marriage
But grew when it was time for a baby carriage.
My milk came in and you grew in size but
I could hardly believe my eyes!
Then you shrank again and stayed that way
Until that very fateful day
Menopause! I now have boobs
Along with hot flashes and lots of moods!
We made it through that
But the time has come
To say goodbye, I will only have one.
You served me well
But as we say ta ta,
No ta tas for me
But I’ll still have a TA!
