GROWING OLD
Each one of us has a
unique story
Of what it’s like
reaching old age
We go from youth to
adulthood
Just like a book turn
each page
Perhaps the title
should be groaning old
Considering all my
arthritis pain
I realize it’s
necessary for the crops but
I don’t need advance
notice of the rain
Here’s a riddle that
I’m always quoting
People ask how I feel
and how old I am
Well I feel with my
hands so how old am I
They ask but do many
of them give a damn
One perk I can say
about growing old is that
Through it all I’ve
really had a wonderful life
Five great daughters
and a bunch of grandkids
And best of all a
wonderful companion and wife
But the greatest part
of growing old is still to come
At some time in the
future I’ll get the Lord’s call
One day I’ll even be
reunite with my loved ones
So yes I can say
growing old is really worth it all
