Getting Old

by Cedar

Abecdarian Poem Contest Winner 

Arthritis is getting worse
Bones are stiff and sore
Chewing hurts my gums
Don't have teeth anymore

Energy level is fading fast
Find it hard to rock my chair
Got my driver's license revoked
Have my wife take me everywhere

I need to do more exercises
Jogging is not on my list
Key to living a longer life
Less stress, don't get pissed

Muscles are weak and flabby
Nose is getting awfully big
Overweight and almost bald
Probably buy a sexy wig

Quit smoking and drinking beer
Really hard to do those two
Still active on the sexual scene
That is until my face turns blue

Up used to be a problem
Viagra is a miracle pill
Wine puts me in the mood
Xanax helps me to chill

Yielding to old age is not for me
Zip code change down to Miami...~~~~~~~
