It is very cold
The constant chill is getting old.
I do not like
This winter Reich.

A man was getting old
And losing living strength...

My good dog he's getting old
Slowing down and not so bold
To lazy to bark
Slow walk in the park
Still keeps me warm when I get cold...

To clear this
Troubled heart

That bitterness can rot the soul
Unkind words can dig a big whole
I must be getting old
Negative words have no hold....

When his joints ached as he rose
he kicked the chair leg in despair.
He knows it is the fault of age…
but it’s easier to blame the chair....

This daily pain gets very rough
Creeks and crackles when I bend
My body is trying to send
A message its had enough...

Who's brain was getting old and foggy
He frequently forgot
Where he had marked the spot
Everywhere he looked was soggy...

What happened to the common cold
The news of it is getting old

Since covid has spread
And left many dead

Getting Old
I'm getting old,
I have a suspicion.
How do I know?
Corrugated skin
and sunspots

of road map
composition.
If multi colored
would paint
a rainbow....
