They say with age comes wisdom
No one says with age comes new troubles
The tired bones and the wrinkly brows
The saggy skin and the droopy eyes
The failing hearing and people failing to hear you
The ‘I forget’ and once upon a time
Now there’s new loud music, unlike times of blues and jazz
Now the there’s attires, that never quite cover the breasts
Everyone is running places and talking on gadgets
No one writes anymore, it’s all emails and texts
They say with age comes wisdom
Wisdom to impart, wisdom the young refuse to receive
With age comes wisdom
Wisdom to know you get old all by yourself, the world goes
on
With or without your age old wisdom
