    Lisasview, thanks for your sharing your discovery of the Kyreille form. I personally do enjoy the style. Surely, please do show your skill and thank you for doing so.

I can relate so much to your old bones. I am getting there too. As a matter fact, I have two broken bones right now that are in the process of healing a broken hairline fracture in my femur, and I also got a hairline fracture in my pelvis. Patricia

Hi JLR.
This is a good kyrielle for the Potlatch Club. This reminds us what most often come with aging. I have not quite reached this stage, but am coming closer.
Keep writing and stay healthy and pain free.
Have a great day.
Joan

    Joan, stay as fit as humanly possible. It does matter as each new decade arrives, I?m getting a full knee replacement at the end of the month ? getting old sure isn?t for sissies! But I am so grateful to be fit enough at seventy three to get both knees done and get back in the game!

    I try my best, John. I am a decade younger than you and still have no knee problems. I have a little arthritis in the big toe of my right foot and that's about all. Maybe you can run a marathon after the surgery with a little training. HAha.

This is certainly true for many of us here on FanStory. Still feeling such aches while I'm awake, has me raising my voice saying ... at times ... For goodness's sake; stop already, and then at times, lifting praise I'm still alive.

This kyrielle, These Old Bones, has the proper formatting and finds that the aches may be masked, but they are exposed again and resume their place as reality.
