Had my annual check ups, Seems I'm good for a few more days. Who knows when death will bury me, I surely don't want to know. Can't get around like I used to, But who the hell can in their 90's? I don't bitch too much, no one listens, And that suits me fine, hate a complainer. Still have an eye for the girls. I don't think that will ever go away. Frustrating to know you are over the hill, But the climb is still there, in your mind.

They say that climbing down is much harder than climbing up. It's all that effort that keeps us young. And, as soon as you stop chasing girls, your time will be up. I guess that's why my PSA, checked a couple of weeks ago like you, is so low. I love how you keep on the upside of life all the time. You're so right about complaining not helping anyone, anywhere.

Many more good checkups to come. Soon you'll be in the Guinness book of world records as the oldest daily poet in existence. And I won't topple your record, because I can't/won't/don't want to write a poem a day.

George.... it's all up hill from here on down. What are you going to do with all your spare time?

Or can you remember?
