A Safe Bet
When I was youthfulI was thoughtfully agile
To be perfectly truthful
I'm now thoughtfully fragile
How did it happen?
Nimble thoughts don't flow-down
Has my brain just been nappin
And causing thought-slow-down?
My age won't defeat me
With thoughts gone astray
I won't let this beat me
I've too much to say
Though my thought flow's diminished
Don't give up on me yet
My brainwork's not finished
On that you can bet
