Cellular Growth…?


 


Older & older I do get,


On a cellular level I do fret,


Seems each & everyday another cell does make a threat,


To end it all by jumping into my stomach of acid, you can bet…


 


The only part of me that does seem to anymore grow,


Is my stomach, my gut when food and drink does flow,


My gut getting bigger than even does my butt,


Hate to, really, throw at you this tale of woe…


 


Not much else one can say,


The more I do in the month of May weigh,


The more I do feel just a bit of dismay,


I just wish that my humor was enough to you slay…

No matter the woes, you always seem to keep your sense of humor, Ed. That's a saving grace that I find very hard to discover these days. Thank you. Love and peace to you. Regis

right with you buddy, I feel the same way, you put it in words. This eating thing along with old age takes some getting use too. Anyway I got something that you might find amusing. I was trying to make it home from work one evening. I got so tired I had to pull over and take a nap, anyway I started dreaming. These two angels showed up and told me I wasn't going to make it home alive this day. One of them was you. The other I didn't recognize. I called my wife after I woke up and told her what happen. She told me to hurry up and get my butt home. For about a minute or two I was afraid to crank my car up in fear. Then after I fully awake, I told myself the heck with those angels, "come and get me." I never been much of a chicken. I drove myself on home but at every intersection my eyes bulged, hehe. Got to laugh on that. Here I sat still alive Ed, maybe you'll get me the next time
