Old Bones
Old Bones
by Bob Moore ©2022
I never thought I’d make old bones
the bending back, the moans and groans
live a fast life, and die with a smile
take things now, don’t wait a while
Creaking joints that will not bend
Elbows, knee’s and pain no end
Wake in the morning, another day
Know all these aches won’t go away
At least I know I’m still alive
some friends and relatives did not survive
to wake in the morning, as I do now
to face another day somehow
But as the years went passing by
I found things to live for, not to die
family, friends, things to do
I hope life is the same for you.
