The Old Man

James Alexander

there was an old man

four walls and a door

a light in the ceiling

and below a floor

 

it's a lonely life

and such a bore

with nothing to do

especially if poor

    A short poem which highlights the plight of some of our elderly. Lonely, confined within the home, and short of money. A sad existence. Thanks for sharing.
