No Clue

Younger people have no clue

That many things they like to do

Will, one day, prove to be too much,

By slipping from an aging clutch.

 

The rah-rah-rah and go-go-go

Of constant moving starts to slow.

The parties lasting through the night

No longer whet your appetite.

 

The dinners that begin at 8,

With drinks you’d once appreciate,

Give way to early-bird-type meals

With much less food, which now appeals.

 

The traveling to cool locales

To ski or hike with groups of pals

May be the trip you once would choose,

But now, you’d pick a river cruise.

 

You never think when you are young

That you would ever be among

The people who have reached the age

Where life is at a different stage.
