    Default The New Alphabet for seniors...funny but true!

    New Alphabet :
    A is for apple, and B is for boat, That used to be right, but now it won't float! Age before beauty is what we once said, But let's be a bit more realistic instead.




    Now The Alphabet:

    A's for arthritis; B's the bad back, C's the chest pains, perhaps car-di-ac?


    D is for dental decay and decline, E is for eyesight, can't read that top line! F is for fissures and fluid retention, G is for gas which I'd rather not mention.


    H high blood pressure--I'd rather it low; I for incisions with scars you can show. J is for joints, out of socket, won't mend, K is for knees that crack when they bend. L 's for libido, what happened to sex? M is for memory, I forget what comes next. N is neuralgia, in nerves way down low; O is for osteo, bones that don't grow!


    P for prescriptions, I have quite a few, just give me a pill and I'll be good as new! Qis for queasy, is it fatal or flu? R is for reflux, one meal turns to two.


    S is for sleepless nights, counting my fears, T is for Tinnitus; bells in my ears! U is for urinary; troubles with flow; V for vertigo, that's 'dizzy,' you know..


    W for worry, now what's going 'round? X is for X ray, and what might be found. Yfor another year I'm left here behind, Z is for zest I still have-- in my mind!


    I've survived all the symptoms, my body's deployed, And I'm keeping twenty-six doctors fully employed!


    HAVE A GREAT DAY !

    This could not be truer!!! My father always said that the golden years were for doctors because you have to give them all your gold! I just thank God when I wake up on the right side of the grass!
