Yesterday, my root canaled 'tooth' came off,
Ceramic, pillar, pile and all!
I wonder
when will my replaced knees wear out.
When will all my artifacts come off?
Oftentimes you have said to me
Have a heart!
And I have said,
I do have a heart.
It's not an artefact
It is not just of four chambers.
It's many creases of joy and hurt,
many droplets of pain.
Can't be replaced.
Can be transplanted, though.

Well said, slowly we will fall apart, may be share dentures with wife.A time may come when knees are replaced part of us may be sleeping on the bed and part on the chair.
Enjoy old age, it comes only once.
Neither joy nor pain will last forever! My laughter won't last forever but neither will my tears!
