The alphabet for those over 65

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