Senior Companions

Senior Companions

It's not easy growing old, no matter what you do

A Senior Companion is there, to help you through

When you lose some hearing, when you lose some sight

We are there to comfort you, and bring you some light

When your days feel numbered, and you think your life is done

We come into your world, to bring you some good fun

Crazy Eight, Rummy, Bingo, or Dominoes

Cribbage, Dice, Skipbo, because anything goes

We assist you, by bringing you somewhere

As we roll you along, in your wheelchair

We'll visit with you, and we will converse

Bring a smile to your face, for better not for worse

We'll bring you shopping, help you as you go

A friend in us, is what you'll come to know

Maybe a stroll outside, on a summer day

To watch the birds sing, and to watch them play

Whether it be games, which is a lot of fun

Or a conversation, like a One on One

We'll bring a smile, right onto your face

I can't think of it being, in a better place

As a Senior Companion, we are here to make

your life much more enjoyable. We play games,

talk with you, listen to you, and we understand

everything you are going through. We reach out

and we touch you with our presence, and our smiles.
