The fear of getting old
Old and slippery, old and slippery,
Age can take a toll on us,
We all crave for old age,
Yet only a few can pay the price.
At every age limit,
We look forward to a better year,
Till it is all over,
In a glimpse.
The young craving to be old,
And the old craving to be young again,
The old remembering the good old days,
Always wanting what we don't have,
Why not enjoy the present,
And make good use of it.
Time comes, time goes,
How it was spent makes the difference,
Don't wait to be old before you take a step,
So you won't be filled with regret.
