The Senior Alphabet

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.

The Alphabet For Seniors:

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 is for 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! Q is 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. Y for another year I'm left here behind,  Z is for zest I still have - in my mind!
