Struggle Bus

On a hike, we found this old bus.
To be honest, it looks pretty sus.
Resting on its side,
What was that last ride?
It seems to have been perilous!

 

Old Birdhouse

I'm not sure if this houses a bird.

If so it would not be absurd.

Age makes it unique,

Like a living antique.

Its tenants are feathered, not furred.

End of Summer Eve

Though Summers off is a great perk,

Tomorrow I go back to work.

I do think I'm ready,

I'll try to be steady,

Being the old guy is my quirk.

Birthday!

 My youngest child turned 21.

We celebrated, and had fun.

But if truth be told,

It makes me feel old.

Which I'll be soon in the long run.

Barking Beagle Blues

Our beagle is getting so old.

For her constant barking we do scold.

I think she forgets, 

Or is having regrets.

Sometimes she cannot be consoled.

Old and Sore

I played basketball three times this week,
And spread three yards of bark dust, so chic.
Now I'm a bit sore,
From this strenuous chore.
At least my muscles did not tweak.

Sore

On Monday I played ball before,

I went on a hike and walked more.

It's no big surprise,

That this did arise.

But now my leg muscles are sore.

Poop

Our beagle is getting so old,

And sometimes her bowels won't hold.

So we find little piles

That sometimes are vile.

Into one pile the roomba has rolled.

Pick up Games

Today's ball games gave me a test,

And I clearly was not at my best.

But that one team was young,

Their shots were well flung.

I'm still sore, though I got lots of rest.

Basketball Night

After running up and down the floor,

My body is now feeling sore.

I don't need to be told,

That I'm getting old.

I'd just rather play basketball more.

Getting Older

Sometimes when I get up I moan,

'Cause I'm sore in my muscles and bone.

My wife likes to laugh

As I stretch my calf.

It just feels better to groan.

Birthday

I don't mean to be causing a scene,

But my youngest child is now a teen.

This means that I'm old,

Or so I am told.

But younger than the Pleistocene.

Old Tractor

This tractor is next to my school,

And I thought that the lighting was cool.

It looks pretty old,

Abandoned, not sold.

It once was a valuable tool.

Old Man Basketball

Each Sunday I play basketball,

But now I'm the oldest of all.

Those younger quick guys,

May think that I'm wise,

But that don't mean they give me the call.

Aches and Pains

Playing basketball makes me grin,

I don't care if I lose or win.

But when I am done,

And can no longer run,

It's time to take ibuprofen.

It Finally Happened

I knew it would happen one day,

No, not how my hair is now grey.

A new student's dad,

Is a student I had.

And I'm feeling a bit of dismay.
