SPECIAL POEM FOR SENIOR CITIZENS!

A row of bottles on my shelf
Caused me to analyze myself.
One yellow pill I have to pop
Goes to my heart so it won't stop.
A little white one that I take
Goes to my hands so they won't shake.
The blue ones that I use a lot
Tell me I'm happy when I'm not.
The purple pill goes to my brain
And tells me that I have no pain.
The capsules tell me not to wheeze
Or cough or choke or even sneeze.
The red ones, smallest of them all
Go to my blood so I won't fall.
The orange ones, very big and bright
Prevent my leg cramps in the night.
Such an array of brilliant pills
Helping to cure all kinds of ills.
But what I'd really like to know...........
Is what tells each one where to go!

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it. For example I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.

Good poem. I am never going to get old, I am going to be young in my mind as long as I live. LOL.
I know I will age with years and someday die. But I will stay young at heart and enjoy life all the, enjoy the trip as I make it.

It wasn't easy. I was accosted by two tough guy poets. They said I ode them a lot of money, but I told them to take a haiku.

This may be the pair of them right here (right click, then "view image.")

I'm hopelessly behind, drifting on the breezes, lost in fog, and wandering like Andromeda but without being blind.
So if you hear stumbling and muttering behind you, it's just me.
