You talk songs, you talk memories. You talk memories, you talk songs. That's why so many of these postings have reminded me of songs. The Silent Voices one is really fine.

How about: "All lined up in lawn chairs under the trees
Lost in their thoughts and their old memories
They've out-lived their friends and their enemies
They're the last of the line, and they're taking their time
But their minds are as clear as old summer wine.
