When a child was a child
A man was young and strong
As A child was growing well
A man was getting old
And losing living strength

Poor Rudolph was getting old,
He had the start of a heavy cold.
He did not want to pull the sleigh.
In the manger, he wanted to lay.

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

I need you lord
To clear this
Troubled heart
I lost my soul
I need control
I’m getting old
There is this road
This road towards God

They call it the common cold
but that name's getting old
The cough is surely more common
when resistance doesn't have its game on

Mother did you know
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.

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

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

Feeling old is something else
Being old is out of self
Getting old is finding a shelf
Living old is pain itself
Dying old is righteous death

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.

If truth be told, I’m getting old
my hair is streaked with grey
I cannot lie, I use hair dye
To banish the greys away

Age rushed in like the waves of an unrelenting sea…
knowing she could not hold back the tide
she welcomed in the ocean
and did her best to enjoy the ride.

She'll join Brandy and Ginger;
Favorite past dogs.

If I must tell the truth about getting old,
Then I shall put all my cards on the table
Even when I’m naked I still want to
Slip into something more comfortable

I never thought much about growing old
While challenging the idea of “getting” old
A well-aged wine or cheese has merit
A well-aged man has wrinkles and nose hair

An old Irish gnome named Mr. Wiggles
Has never ending humor and giggles
His jokes are getting old
It's the same ones he's told
But still fun to watch his belly jiggles

A Polar bear
With an icy stare
Looked down at her newborn cub
Feeling sad, and felt bad
As she had no milk to sup
She was getting old and extremely cold
Her milk had frozen up

That's the trouble
with getting old
everyone is waiting
for you
to die
at least
in ancient cultures
they didn't shed
crocodile tears
they put you out
the door,
literally.

getting old
Feeling cold
Croaky voice
Have no choice
Wrinkled skin
Getting thin
Thin and scraggy
Eyes baggy
Mouth droopy
Going loopy
Legs all swollen
Youth has gone
Stolen

Verse
Since getting old, I now walk like a penguin
Wobbling describes it, could be water retention
All that being said
More that I dread
A load in my nighty causing hypertension

you know you're getting old
when your idea of a great party
is one that gets you home by seven
in time for your favorite tv show
