Comment from Sararb
You did a great job with this poem. I know how you feel. I get a shock every time I go to do something and realize I can't do that anymore. Growing older is not for sissies. I'm sorry that you are suffering today, but it's great that you actually played eighteen holes. It's best not to get overheated and drink plenty of water on hot summer days. I know all about these old bones! Ouch! LOL Sara :)

Don't know how you got two of them posted here but they are. The same write is what it is with two different titles. Better check it out Ton.

Thanks Gungalo. I don't know how this happened. But now I can't post another today, sone sort of glitch. But glad for you rating since a got a 2 on one of them.
-
Yes you can Tom. You can edit it and replace the whole thing. I've done it guy.
-
Oh, great idea. Hadn't thought of that. What happens to the ratings?
-
THey stay with the write but so what. Pick the one with the fewest writes on it.
Comment from Dean Kuch
Nope, those old bones don't allow you to do as much as you once did, that's for sure! So, you're a golfer I see. That explains why you are such a thinker. Nothing like being out on a green of eighteen, lookin' lean and hittin' mean!
Hopefully, those old bones will ease up a bit so you can get back to playing very soon...
I thought this one was funny AND so true!

Thank you Dean. You cheered me ip after getting a 2 rating. Also, somehow it got double posted. I don't know how.
Comment from Maureen's Pen
Hi Tom,
I should laugh and really its more because I know the feeling at the moment. The body is dawdling painfully slow at times. So great work here - I'm useless at golf - always lose the darn balls. Now mini put with the kids, that's a different story.
Loved artwork too - overall strong poem.
Thanks for sharing and take it easy on the bones:)

Thank you very much, Maureen. This helps offset the 2 ranking I got from someone else. I smiled at your comments. Thanks for cheering me up.

Haha. the picture is very apt and fits perfectly with your author notes. Nice poem-you've described the one obvious sign of aging: Creaking bones, which result in slow movement.

hHI!> My old bones started to come out in sympathy having read your Quatrain. It would be great if we could grease the joints same as we do on a creaking gate or mower. If only! wiljaro.
