For my seventieth birthday I was gifted I’m Too Young To Be Seventy: And Other Delusions by Judith Viorst. Some of the limericks made me chuckle, others made me reflect on a life well-lived.

The topics discussed are group into four sections: At Seventy, Still Married, The Children and Grandchildren, and The Rest of It. For me, most of the poems were relative in some for, if only to provide a chuckle.

If you are looking for a humorous and poignant gift for a new septuagenarian, I recommend I’m Too Young To Be Seventy.
