Poet indicates something common but interesting we often do not care or remember, that with the age, separating men from women becomes harder; well said, well done. Keep Writing -- DR ALCREATOR

Aging is not for the weak of heart. This is very well written with a touch of humor. One must face life one day at a time. This has very good imagery and descriptive scheme.

    I appreciate your comments my mother taught us not to speak of these things so this was. Hard to admit.

Enjoyed this poem about getting old, loved the two line format used, emotive and sad the aging process hangs heavy around the writer's neck.
Best wishes..........

Wonderful job, this is so well written. I to am sagging in spots I didn't know I had. I keep my hair cut short to cover my receding hairline. I really enjoyed your poem. Have a great day and God Bless, mike.

I suppose there is not much good to say about aging - but it happens to everyone.
I found this poem to be humorous.
The rhymes are good, but the rhythm is broken up by the lack of a rhyming scheme and changing syllable count per line. Some couplets rhyme, some do not.

    As you can tell, I know nothing about poems.
    Even reading them confuses me.
    I am doing some classes, perhaps it will help.
    Couplets? syllable count?

Hi, CBAT: This is a very interesting poem. You did a really good job portraying the feelings of someone who has had enough. Did you mean to use "losing" as opposed to "loosing" in your description? Good luck to you. Mickey

Hi there,

I enjoyed this poem with good solid rhymes and approximates.
Good presentation of the piece as well in the short lines.

The joys of aging are not lost on us. When does enough become enough?

Humorous, sad and true. I have often wondered why I am still around. For His purpose - is the only reason I have come up with. You stated the facts of the aged. Thanks for sharing, (I think?).

I thought this to be funny and I can relate on several point the snot, the teeth , the piddle and the spittle.
I don't think with the package I carry just below my chin anyone will confuse me for a man however. Patricia
