"GOLDEN YEARS"
They say that the
golden years are the best.
Yeah, right!!!
Golden is not what
I have seen yet.
As for growing old.
First the eye sight,
but not in all cases.
The doctor said
it's just your age.
If he mentions my
age, one more time.
He may not see tomorrow.
Than the hearing.
Someone said, you
might need a hearing aid.
I don't think so.
I have all the helping
aids I can handle.
"SPEAK UP,
I CANNOT HEAR YOU."
Oh!!!
Let don't forget
about "WRINKLES."
Have so many....
Thought I'd use
my iron, but was afraid that would not work.
Even my gynecologist
cannot tell which end is which from all the wrinkles.
He is still trying
to figure it out.
To make manners
worst.
My husband asked
if I had seen the new wrinkled puppy running around.
At least my mind
is still about me, I think, but, that seems to be going.
You, know....Like.
Searching for your
glasses, just to find out you had them on your head all the time.
Lets not forget
about this one...
I need to put this
somewhere so I will not loss it.
Just to find out
you forgot where you put it.
Oh yeah, the famous
one....came here for a reason.
I know it was important.
Just cannot remember
why.
Which muscle or
bone is going to hurt today?
Maybe my whole body
hurts.
It's the weather.
When I was young
aches and pain were never a problem.
Pain....what is
that???
The older I get
the more I become one big pain.
Even my children
and friends look at me and agree.
I will not discuss
where they feel I am a pain at.
You get the picture!
In my younger days
my husband did like to look at me.
Now, he says please
put your clothes on, your ruining my view.
"I PROTESTS."
Even collagen cannot
help.
My skin does not
have the ability to stretch and go back to its original shape
anymore.
So, you tell me
if getting old is GOLDEN!!!!
If life gets any more golden. I would like to pass.
