Preferred Fashion

~ V.J. Knutson

Age allots me the excuse to ignore fashion,
invites me to wear bright colours, dance

in offbeat shoes, wear hats of any flair,
and announce my mood in any given moment.

Yes, being a senior citizen is most freeing –
not unlike my childish kin.

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  3. I love the freedom of not having to buy something new. Since I had the good fortune of losing weight, I needed to tailor my suits, but never wear them except to funerals and weddings. So, I tailored one suit and one sports coat and slacks.
