Oh Dear!

Oh Dear!

Remember ….

When life was all you wanted – all worked out and neat
And you could take on any challenge – never thinking of defeat,
Don’t you feel that life has changed to a faster pace
And it really has become that terrible rat race!

Do you find your aches and pains are more pronounced and often?
Do you find your muscles aren’t as taut – more softened?
Do you find your memory isn’t what it used to be?
And do you find it harder to get up from off your knees?

Now your heart beats faster – it’s palpitations, not passion!
And you wear your clothes for comfort – and to hell with fashion!
S0 set your pace, take your time – you’re not as nimble matey!
It’s all a part of reaching the grand old age of  EIGHTY!!
