“OLD FOLKS”

Remember that  “OLD FOLKS”  are worth a fortune,  with silver in their hair… gold in their teeth… stones in their kidneys…  and gas in their stomachs!

I have become a little older since, I last saw you… and a few changes have come into my  “LIFE” … since then. 

Frankly,  “I have become a “Frivolous” …  old gal!”

I am  NOW seeing five  (5)  “gentlemen” …  every day!  

As soon  as   I WAKE UP …   “Mr. Will Power”  helps me get out of bed!  And then…  “Mr. Charlie Horse”  comes along and when he is here…  he takes a whole lot of my time and attention! 

 Oh,  and when he leaves…  “Mr. Arthur Ritis”  will show up… and has the nerve to stay the rest of the day! He also  does not like to stay in only one place very long…  so he will take me… from…  “joint to joint!”

Now, and…  after such a very busy day… I am really tired and “OH” … “so glad” …  to go to bed with “Mr. Ben Gay!” 

And … oh me my ooh …  what -a “Life” … that I live?

P.S.     The “Preacher”  came to call on me the other day.  He said… that at my “AGE”…  that,  I should be thinking about the  “HERE – AFTER?” 

I told him…  “OH, but …   I  do,  and all the time.  No matter where I am… in the parlor … upstairs…  in the kitchen or even down in the “basement” …  I ask myself …  NOW  – what  am I  –  here after?”
