Aging Woes



Forgetful moments, hair thinning,
Memories fading, ears ringing,
Hands wrinkled, boobs drooping,
Knees weak, words looping,
Silver top, hot flushing,
Bladder weakness, loo rushing,
Bones tired, sleeping less,
Couldn’t care, such a mess,
Body Aching, back going
Feet cramping, motion slowing
Eyes blurring, tummy tucks,
Getting older, really sucks.
