Hard Of Hearing
I need glasses now
and it’s weird
since I find that life is still blurred
even behind bits of glass
Age didn’t just seep
it dug under My mind
and took much delight
In my loss of sight
Comments
Thanks David
Well Richard I confess to 55 years of myopic vision, but perhaps sometimes when we close our eyes we see more clearly and capture that focus in words... Best wishes, Dave
Lol you see my eyes truly are bad :)
Thanks so much that typo must of happened when I pasted Ta very much as I never noticed
Oh, help!
Check out 'bits of glass' - just a typo, but it would look better corrected.
Not a great poem just a bit of fun but thanks for the comments folks :)
It is one of the kinder aspects of ageing that
it's usually a slow process of acclimatisation.
The sudden loss of a faculty is always shocking
but in general...
You have to adapt, you have to adjust,
Until your body goes to dust!
Keep smilin` Richard and don`t let the blurry
b...stards grind you down.

Hi Richard
Nice little poem mate. Made me smile and think a bit about my own advancing years.
