Silver What?

92 years old

he tells us his days are good.

He volunteers

two days a week

and goes to see

his personal trainer.

Is it Silver Sneakers,

I ask.

Yes it is, he affirms.

The conversation drifts to other things

until he wants to say something about

Silver Sneakers

only it comes out

Silver Streakers.

Silver Streakers!

So that is what keeps him so young!

I want to be a part of that! I say.
