Over Sixty

RODOLFO HERNANDEZ JR.

April 3, 2020

Today’s a new day 

But I’ll have to remind you,

Because you to tend to forget

When you’re over sixty. 

There is joy in your eyes

When someone comes to visit,

Because people come and go

When you’re over sixty. 

You raise the same arms

That raised me up too,

Because you to tend to want hugs

When you’re over sixty. 

I have to explain

Why I stay far away,

Because right now it’s good to

When you’re over sixty. 

You let it be known

That you’ve been insulted,

Because you should be respected

When you’re over sixty. 

And I know you’re upset

That things don’t make sense,

Because time isn’t on your side

When you’re over sixty.
