Golden Years

Golden Years Golden Years who’s kidding who It’s a farce It’s just not true Try us old folks to deceive More like rust I do believe. Take ARTHRITIS when your old OH how we suffer in rain and cold Next is OSTEOPAROSIS settling in Meaning your bones are getting thin. ACHES and PAINS seem to be The ones sent to cause us misery Then you start taking lots of pills To help you get through all your ills. But there are compensations too By all the seniors discounts for you Places that offer savings galore Darn it who could ask for more. But At least we manage to survive And think how lucky were still alive And still with family we are able to share All the love that’s always there. All our friends are still there too Supporting us the whole day through So now we can forget the pain and all FOR WHICH WE RUSTY GOLDENAGERS THANK YOU ALL. R. Taub
