Taking Care of You, Whose Taking Care of Me

Taking care of you, whose taking care of me
You worry bout' my head and feet
I worry bout' your liver and nails
We take care of each other
day by day and ways by ways
Now sweet kisses adorn our necks
An expression of our caring
We're as young as ninety sleeping under the quilts
Taking care of you, whose taking care of me

Hi Susan, how sweet this is. Some people are indeed lucky that love endures all of life's ups and downs into old age. A lovely write that made me smile. (Just one little edit - the apostrophe on 'bout should be at the beginning of the word to denote the missing 'a'). Thanks for your comments on my acrostic ~ Sharon :)
