Old People Sounds

It begins every day
with strange sounds I would say
rising up, to a mornings sun rays.

There is cracking and creaking
and parts even squeaking
strange music my bones seem to play.

There is moaning and groaning
the lack of my toning
I endeavor to changing my ways.

Rolling out of my rack
with a resounding big crack
'tis life getting old, I do say!

Its the squeaks and the cracks that let you know the joints are still moving. :D So heat and stretch and bend and rest. And know that meat bones concert should make you laugh. After all you still got it baby! - This made me smile. Thank you!
