The Joy of Ageing

My comfort zone is getting smaller As the years pass by I am definitely getting stranger Ditzier also applies! Distraction happens so easily now My mind is neither here nor there Thoughts regularly float out of my mind Vanishing into thin air I do not mind ageing It comes with many benefits However, forgetting and loss of memory Now, that really does give me the s**ts!! Forgetting the reason I walked in a room Not remembering to complete a chore Words, names all slip my mind Misplaced, lost items galore Another negative with ageing Is the body breaking down Aches, paints and ailments More as each new year comes around Yet, I am happy, as I am alive and grateful Able to appreciate and enjoy each new day As I am loved , and I love What more do I need, what more can I say!
