Life is Good
by Denny Sisson (Age: 79)
copyright 08-29-2002


Age Rating: 10 to 127

 
Life is Good


My memory is going, I don’t hear so good.
I have a potbelly but don’t eat much food.
Didn’t use to be like this. Don’t know what happened.
My body is a wreck compared to what it has been.

I don’t have much energy, I move pretty slow.
I only go places I have to go.
Each afternoon you can catch me nappin.
My body is a wreck compared to what is has been.

My mind says do it to all that I see
This curbing my actions just isn’t me
My kids are all working, the grandkids are rappin
My body is a wreck compared to what it has been

All is well with my soul.
When my life is over I’m sure it will still be
My body is a wreck compared to what it will be.

Denny Sisson

Yes, so true Denny. Our mortality always catches up with us. At 56, I feel my age...but you're just as right in saying, the soul is forever young. Nicely done.

Great one.

Did I detect a song in there somewhere? If all is well with the soul, then the body shouldn't matter that much. That would be nice. Good poem.

Oops. I misconstrued the meaning of your poems end. I still like the flip of outlook. From back to forward, and now the optimism of improvement on its way.
08-22-2002 Aaron Schmookler    

Good poem. I like what you did there with the end... making now the oint when things are better when compared to what's coming. I also really like the loose rhymes with "has been."
08-22-2002 Denny Sisson    

I'm sorry that repetition at the end wasn't intended. I tried to edit it but couldn't delete the line
