The Perks of Old Age
We may not look forward to being old,
But there are perks for those of us who get to be old,
Which is a perk in itself.
If you become old enough to be pensioned off,
That gives you more perks,
If most of what you have still works.
But the perks that I find give one much pleasure,
We get in good measure,
Without spending one cent.
Most of the time we get to choose whether
To go out in bad weather,
And when the sun is out in winter we can get its full benefit.
