Pat Adams Poet Couplet

Don'T Worry About It

Snap crackle pop's not my cereal sound anymore
Now that's how I sound getting up off the floor

It's not new if I'm up at the crack of dawn
For an emergency journey to the John
 
I get a new wart or spot every day
I've now abandoned watching what I say

Though not W.C. Fields to any degree
I did say, "Go away son you bother me!"

I can come off as a little cranky I guess
I am a bit coarse and grumpy I confess

But if you think that I'm too brazen or bold
Don't worry about it I'm just getting old!

Ilene Bauer November 30, 2017 at 12:05 PM i can very much relate to this one, pat! i definitely care a lot less about what people think of me and my husband has gotten grumpier, too. there are some benefits of aging (but a lot of negatives, too, i think). Pat Adams November 30, 2017 at 9:30 PM The slowest way to die is what I'm told! OK, now I'm depressed. Think I'll have a beer!..............pat
