Keep young

When I was young my slippers were red
I could kick my heels right over my head
When I was older my slippers were blue
but still I could dance the whole night through
Now I am old my slippers are black
I walk to the store and puff my way back

I get up in the morning and dust off my wits
and pick up the paper and read the obits
If my name is still missing I know that I'm not dead
So I have a good breakfast and go back to bed

The moral is this as my tale I unfold
That for you and me who are growing old
Its better to say I am fine with a grin
Than to let people know the real shape you're in

Re: Keep young

Just when was it that `acid rock` became acid reflux and loud music stopped being fun and became a noise?

Re: Keep young

I love that but, hey I'm growing old disgracefully, stuff the black socks etc.. I'm in brightly coloured jewellery, bluey-green finger and toe nails, (as long as they clash with my clothes) jeans and flip-flops when its sunny or farmers boots when its wet. Its a wonderful baggy old life and the dogs love me whatever I look like ...... though the same can't be said for him indoors
