They Said it Would be Easier

I’ve been working hard
out there in the yard
at least from eleven until two

With a two hour brunch
then coffee, then lunch
and maybe a short nap too

But only on days
when the sun’s golden rays
aren’t too hot or too cold

to live life this way
working so hard all day
man, it sure sucks to get old.
