Nobody Gets Younger

It is obvious that time it has become his foe
He is not the man that he was years ago
In his prime years the fastest athlete in the town
All he has are his sports medals and memories of his youthful renown
He is one who has known of better days in life
Sometimes i see him walking in the park with his aged long term wife
Time that ages all things has them walking slow
Their decades of living on them clearly show
Great grandparents in their early eighties their best years long gone
Nobody gets younger on them time is ticking on
In his physical prime when his hair was light brown
He was the number one athlete in the town
Those were the days when he could run fast
And all he has now are memories of the past.
