The 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
A’s for Arthritis,
B’s the Bad Back,
C is the chest pains, perhaps car-d-iac?
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 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 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 Osteo, the bones that don’t grow!
P for Prescription’s 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 for Sleepless nights, counting my fears,
T for Tinnitus, there’s bells in my ears,
U is for Urinary, big troubles with flow,
V is for Vertigo, that’s “Dizzy” you know,
W is for Worry, NOW what’s going ‘round???
X is for X-Ray, and what might be found,
Y is another Year I’m left here behind,
Z is for Zest that I still have – in my mind.

I’ve survived all the symptoms, my body’s deployed, and I am keeping twenty-six ‘doctors’ fully employed!!!
