On Bus Eighteen Going Toward Town Poem by Shalom Freedman

On Bus Eighteen Going Toward Town



The young are loud and laughing
The old are disturbed and unnerved
I am old and long to be young again
I envy their lightness and life
I sit quietly through the rudeness
I wish they would get off already
How idiotic and wonderful they are
How painful to know
I will never be one of them again
