    A very touching piece..Well penned message and Unforced emotion injected In every lines..

    nice A B C anaphora form at-->

    These old legs don't stand like they used to
    Their strength is gone
    But still they want to stand besides you
    These old arms don't hug like they used to
    Their strength is gone
    But still they want to hold and embrace you
    These old eyes don't see like they used to
    Their strength is gone
    But still they want to see your smile

    and here---->

    This old nose doesn't smell like it used to
    It's strength is gone
    But still it wants to smell when you are near
    This old body doesn't do what it used to
    It's strength is gone
    But still it aches to be part of your life
    This old heart doesn't beat like it used to
    It's strength is gone
    But still with thrill it beats when you are near

    I really liked this a lot. My own mother is 80 now and I am still her baby, just as my kids are still my babies. We never stop being a mom. So very true- well done.
