Old bones crumble without warning.

Bones

by Brigitte Elko

Do you hear them?

Clickity clack

Them ole bones

Clickity clack

Going slack

No more jostling

Clickity clack

Creaking grinding

Clickity clack

Joints squeaking

Clickity clack

Caustic aging

Clickity clack

Them ole bones

Sure to crack.







When a body ages, the bones let you know. Thanks to Anne for the use of this perfect image.
