Aging

Aging

Going down on his knees, the old man
Proposed to  his  petite , pretty  Ann
“I have got two questions, to ask” , said he
“First is whether you will marry me“… 
‘ Yup’, said the girl, ‘what is the next?’ ..
’ Up, will you get me ?’, he winked through his specs.

‘About  old age, the signs are three’,
Said another old one with glee,
“The first one is loss of memory….
The other two … , ‘I forgot, sorry’ ”.

“Let’s go upstairs and make love”, said she
“Hun, choose one, can’t do both” , quipped he.

Hilarious Jag, you make old age something to avoid at all costs. Unfortunately we have nothing to say about it! Love, Lizzy
