Some Ageing Men Poem by Francis Duggan

Not all ageing men are blessed with common sense
As some with their words they like to cause offence
They've not grown wiser though they have grown gray
No fool like an old fool as some are known to say
Some ageing men they do seem good and kind
And any fault in them is hard for to find
For the suffering of others they are easily moved to tears
They have learned from the passing of the years
We ought to learn from living every day
Though some ageing men narcissistic in their way
Take love of self one might say far too far
Though suppose some people cannot help the way they are
Humanity is made up of every kind
And if you look for flaws in others flaws you will find.
