Get Up and Go<\/b><\/p>\n

Julie Bracken<\/a> posted a photo:<\/p>\n

\"Get<\/a><\/p>\n

How do I know my youth has been spent:
\nBecause my get-up-and-go, got up and went
\nBut in spite of all that, I’m able to grin
\nWhen I think where my get-up-and-go has been<\/p>\n

Old age is golden, I’ve heard it said,
\nBut sometimes I wonder as I go to bed
\nMy ears are in a drawer, my teeth in a cup,
\nMy eyes on a table until I wake up<\/p>\n

When I was young my slippers were red
\nI could kick my heels right over my head
\nWhen I grew older my slippers were blue
\nBut I could still dance the whole night thru<\/p>\n

Now that I am old my slippers are black
\nI walk to the corner and puff my way back
\nThe reason I know my youth is spent
\nMy get-up-and-go got up and went<\/p>\n

I get up each morning dust off my wits
\nPick up the paper and read the “orbits”
\nIf my name is missing, I know I’m not dead
\nSo I eat a good breakfast and go back to bed<\/i>
