Bothersome
Bothersome
It sneaks up on you in an instance dismay
Before you can turn to look the other way
It is as it is, surely I surely can say
What you feel when you've made it to this age
Aches and pains the day away from such as today
Weather detectors forecasts have nothing on you
The knees ache awry before a rainy day
Two days in advance you already knew
Back pain and spasms always get old
Worsens when exposed to the raging cold
Even gravity makes its impact
Better watch what I say to a sound tact
Cold butt, cold feet, cold hands, false teeth
Nothing to do but turn up the heat
Snowy days come to an end,
Hip hip hooray but now you can bend
Everything hangs so much lower
The older we get we move much slower
The "golden years," say some
I say there only bothersome
