Life

Life

I’ve got aids to help my hearing
And specs to help me see
A stent keeps my heart beating
I get up at night to pee

My appendix vanished long ago
A yearly flu jab if you please?
Four little pills to keep me alive
And I’ve got two false knees

But my brain is good and working
Plus my sense of humour too
And the reasons I’m so happy
My love, are down to you
