Is this the real old age alphabet?

A's for arthritis,


B's the bad back,


C's the chest pains - perhaps car-d-iac?





D is for dental decay and decline,


E is for eyesight, can't read that top line!


F is for fissures and fluid retention,


G is for gas which I'd rather not mention.





H is high blood pressure - I'd rather it low;


I is for incisions with scars you can show...


J is for joints, out of socket, won't mend,


K is for knees that crack when they bend.





L is for libido, what happened to sex?


M is for memory, I forget what comes next.


N is neuralgia, in nerves way down low;


O is for osteo, the bones that don't grow!





P is for prescriptions, I have quite a few, just give me a pill and I'll be good as new!


Q is for queasy, is it fatal or flu?


R is for reflux, one meal turns to two.





S is for sleepless nights, counting my fears,


T is for Tinnitus - there's bells in my ears!


U is for urinary... big troubles with flow;


V is for vertigo, that's "dizzy," you know.





W is for worry - NOW what's going 'round?


X is for X ray, and what might be found;


Y is another year I'm left here behind,


Z is for zest that I still have - in my mind.





I've survived all the symptoms, my body's deployed, and I am keeping twenty-six doctors fully employed!
