Arthritis In My Finger

Arthritis in my finger
Arthritis in my toe
All day long 
Wherever I do go

Aches and pains
With every step or poke
Taking my energy
Aging is not a joke

Arthritis in my wrist
Arthritis in my knee
I wish I had been as careful
As others seemed to be

Getting on in years is okay as long as you're healthy, sad fact is once past forty you creak a bit and bits drop off lol. Tom
