Young Soul Emerges

October 9th, 2011 § 1 Comment

He sits in that old sunken chair
Clothed in old western button up shirts
Boots stretched to fit his swollen feet
His hair peppered with grey
Hands stiff with age
Yet his voice is strong
Telling of the old days
Joking constantly
Humor deep within
His eyes sparkle when he tells his stories
His stiff body moves with excitement
Color appears onto his face
A lightness of being he becomes
An old soul overshadowed
By a true young man he is still
And always will be

  • Excellent imagery! I enjoyed this piece a lot. Your title is perfect. I think the art of titling is one of the most difficult (I myself avoid it entirely!). So often a good piece is fuddled by the wrong name!
