Out of Order

Out of order said the sign on the door,
now what do I do I have to go up
and climbing the stairs is just such a chore!
If I could grow wings like old auntie Ester
I wouldn’t stay here I would fly to the shore 
of the enchanted island
and play on the sand with those I adore~
but for now the elevator still won’t go up, 
and since haven’t grown wings 
     I will climb those five floors!

Jerry Brotherton February 23, 2026 at 8:44 AM The saddest fact about age is no longer being able to do the simplest things. A fine write, my friend. Have a blessed day. Chetta Achara February 23, 2026 at 10:03 AM Thank you.

Kim Rodrigues February 23, 2026 at 7:20 AM Not easy! Climbing stairs no longer easy. Epidural Injections for sciatica and knee injections help but don’t make me any younger. Happy is found in just getting by for now. Hugs Chetta Achara February 23, 2026 at 10:03 AM Yes. Aging is tough on the body. I still feel young, but my body says otherwise.
