Autumn years

Slowing down a bit

a vessel for memories

one day at a time

Genesis

In the beginning

was a rock band Genesis

last performances

* in Birmingham watching ageing rockers.

Making it up

.

Unable to hear

quite as well as I once could

filling in the gaps

Dying

.

Hard to witness the

slow deterioration

the sharp becomes blunt

The sixth age

 

The wisdom of age

does not compensate for lost

capabilities.

New glasses

 

From one pair to three

there’s no need for a neck chain

thank goodness for that.

Part of the ageing process

.

Wearing boxer shorts

back-to-front is a sure sign

of getting older.

Hair today, gone tomorrow

 

Such sacrifices

made in pursuit of wisdom;

I’d rather have hair.

Ageing

My eyes are no good,

my ears are no good; at least

I know who I am.
