What was that did you say?
Speak up, I can't hear you today
Do you remember the time?
Oh, you've heard that rhyme
Forgetting is a non-negotiable
when you're old and sociable
You see that impatient stare
But you're not aware
that story you're telling
is no longer compelling
no time for the old anymore
but death will not skip your door
be kind to the weak and the elderly too
for someday all of those things will be you
Yesterday would have been my grandma's 90th birthday. I wish I had been kinder and more patient with her when she was still here.
