From your head you lose a few more strands of hair every day
That old age can be a punishment it does seem this way
The passing of time does leave you walking slow
This is something no doubt that you already know
People good at sports seem to fade fast just beyond their physical prime
The physical self quickly succumbs to time
Three score and ten years the average human life span
A few years more for a woman than it is for a man
It is true enough what has been said of the sage
That she or he even grows wiser with age
And though wisdom is a thing that cannot be bought or sold
Some never grow wiser they only grow old
You lose a few gray strands of hair from your head every day
Does that old age can be a punishment seem a fair thing to say?
