The Twilight years .
They say that these are the golden years
Why I am not so sure
Bcos With my new aches and pains
Its certainly no pleasure .
Walking, talking , are not easy
Even if they are Who is there to talk to ?
Where do I walk to ?
No salt ,nosugar ,no taste no apetitite
What can I eat ? How do I eat it ?
When it comes to causing trouble and playing up
All my organs have a mind of their own
If it not my heart or kidneys
Its my aching bones .
My new unwanted companions on the road
Diabetes and mountingBP press ,
Cardiac pains and generally bored .
And their pals helplessness and stress .
Tiredness comes free with each one .
I can handle some uninvited guests
But at my age such guests should come one by one .
Often I ask the Lord
I am generally told my work here is well done
Why not reward me with some restful times
Instead of these constant painful vibes .
For now I’d like a preview of heaven here
With more to follow after I make my grand entry .
Or if you have other plans for me elsewhere .
Why not skip the trials and get me pronto to the fiery party .
