53 Years 2019

53 years 2019

This year I added one more core 
another ailment one year more
with other problems to abide
there’s nothing that I cannot hide
except to say I’m still alive
to listen to my dear wife chime 
of my complaining all the time
surpassing this it’s time to say
again it’s time to seize the day

Hey Ralph, it's a blessing always to have another year whatever it brings with it. I despise this saying but for me, at least. is so true. " better to be on earth than six feet below it" You are far younger than you realize. PR

Hi Pabagiota: Thank you. I have a positive outlook for each day despite my problems (that exist) but i'm at that age where I don't care.
