It Use To Be So Easy Poem by Dorothy (Alves) Holmes

To dig holes to plant roses after
Weeding for an hour,
To jump with ease, in and out
Of the shower.
No trouble putting on pantie hose or
On clothes with zippers in the back,
Matter of fact I could close a kitchen cabinet door
Without my finger getting caught and gave
Little thought to where I put my keys, and
Looking under the bed didn't hurt my knees.
But all and all it could be a different kind of struggle
In my blessed life,
I have a mighty fine husband who is delighted that I
Am his wife....LOL now!
