I’m losing hair. I’m losing teeth
and bits of memory.
I lost my wallet yesterday.
Today it’s my car key.
I’ve lost much of my hearing
My eyesight’s getting poor.
I often lose my balance
and end up on the floor.
The effects of growing older,
I’ve learned are not so kind.
Without a sense of humor
I would likely lose my mind.
I accept the fact that as we age
loss become our fate.
So why is it so stinking hard
for me to lose some weight?
