Growing Old

Grateful for life
Receives much strife
Often left alone
Waiting by telephone
Irritated many ways
Neglected some days
Glad for friend
Onboard til end
Lavishing much care
Delights to spare

For Acrostic Only

Yes, I feel this in my bones, and know of that which thou speaketh of!
Wow, that is a good take on the prompt, Maggie.
very well written, Maggie...you rhymed it beautifully
Wow, good, Maggie! This is just like My Mother-in-law (Mema) was in her last years.
Her favorite saying was "I'm just sittin' here watching these four walls."

I will look at some more of yours after I post an acrostic for that prompt. I.e, I did this one. In February I will read the one's I haven't gotten to. :-)

Very nice. The rhyme is seamless. The whole acrostic flows well.
We really have to give extra love and care for our olds, they need it as much as we young people do.
Very good Maggie!
