Old Soldier

Princess Osariemen Aihie

Retired but never tired

Bones weak and feeble;

Never tired of breaking bones

A decade ago;

Was on the field

Now on his rocking chair

Thinking about the camouflage

Of green and white;

with his old boots

An old soldier;

But never odd

    The old soldier
    savors his camomile
    before going to die

  • TobaniNataiella

    Once a soldier always a soldier, nice piece of writing
