What all  would  happen   after   age   60+ or 70+ or 80+  depending on  yourself

One  by one   our  parents would  bid us good bye,

Slowly  the friends  of  our own   age would start  disappearing,

Some of  our  remaining friends  would start  to struggle  to look   after themselves,

Our next generation would start  bothering about  themselves  more.

Unfortunately  if your  life partner dies  before you,

You  would be pushed  in to  the torture  of loneliness,

You would be  forced  to  live  alone, and have to learn,

 To live  like that  and even learn   to enjoy that  horrible life.

You would   find that  slowly  your society    starts  ignoring you,

This would be  the case  however rich  and however  famous you are,,

You would find   that  the society   would start  treating you  as a common person,

It  would start ignoring you and show you  that you  are  very insignificant.

At that  time  you  should have  to learn  to live , controlling yourself.

One by one  diseases like hyper  tension , diabetes  , cholesterol ,

Urinary  problems , hearing  problems , inability   to walk  etc etc,

Would start  to be your unwelcome guests and if you start  worrying about them,

You would become more miserable but instead if you   start  living  with them,

Adjusting   as much as possible, by taking  proper treatment, you can possibly,

Live  without misery  and lead   a  near  normal life.

After  some more  time  , you  would  not be   able to move  about,

And you would  be like an infant again without your mother and   the person who would look after you ,

Would be  possibly  a paid servant,  and at that stage  , thank them,

Cooperate   with them , so that  they can complete  their job to your best  comfort.

Finally   you would realize  that  you are  nearing death   and every moment ,

Of your life would mean   extra money  and extra  physical  work to look after you,

If you have  managed  your income well  , give   whatever  you   can to your children,

Tell them how sorry you are   and ask them   how  you  can help them, monetarily .

Give presents   to your   children   as well  as  to your  grand   children,

Without worrying  , who  will look after  ME, if I spend  money on them,

Try  to  help  people   round you as much as possible   so that,

The world    in which you lived   would remember you  and shed a drop of tears   for you.
