How many to get up in the morning?
How many before going to bed?
After 65 years
All become quite tedious
Yet without them
Indifference sets in

How many to prepare a meal?
Whether simple or complex
How many to eat and clean up?
When too often the result tastes bland
Yet after 65 years
None of them must be missed
Before anxiety knocks at
Both front and back doors

How many to go shopping?
Whether out or ordered in
How many to attend appointments?
Scheduled and urgent
With even more added as a result
After 65 years Retirement’s
becoming quite cumbersome

How many to go up and down stairs?
On any given day
How many to do the laundry?
Clothes should be clean
In order to do all the above
Even at 65
Or depression will surely
Step in
