The Old Man Poem by Kim Davies

The Old Man



The day is young
The man is old
I didn't see his life unfold.

Memories untold
Possessions sold
No-one to hold
Or keep out the cold.

There is no twilight gold
For this man who is old
But the day is still young.

Very clever. Now I understand the sanwich metaphor. Brilliant.
