| MENOPAUSE
|
| To a girl
| The pivotal points
| In her life are when
| She begins menstruating
| And when she stops.
|
| The former turns her
| Into a woman capable
| Of having children
| The latter tells her that her
| Childbearing days are over.
|
| In both instances her
| Altered hormone mix
| Drastically affects the
| Way she feels and acts
| But with a difference.
|
| Puberty is the birth
| Of womanhood whereas
| Menopause signals its end.
| For those who had children
| Menopause means freedom.
|
| But for career women
| Who did not, it means that
| Now they will never know
| What it feels like to suckle
| A baby at their breast.
|
| Mother Nature doesn't fool around
| Regardless of her modern mindset
| The knowledge that she will never
| Have a child of her own will cause
| A woman to question the future
|
|
| Of the continuous relationship
| With any man-friend or mate
| Because she "wasted" her nubile
| Years on him and now
| It is too late.
|
| This is the time where
| The man should show
| His love and tell her
| That nothing has changed
| And that he still loves her.
|
| While the mature woman should
| Accept her new status in life
| And see a doctor regarding
| Hormone replacement therapy
| To relieve her emotional turmoil.
|
| With care and luck
| A couple can survive
| The emotional upheaval
| But it won't be easy and it
| Will take hard work.
|
| Above all a woman
| Should refrain from blaming
| Others for her troubles
| And accept the fact that if she
| Has anyone is to blame, it is herself.
