Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

A Few More Screws Loose

            A few more screws loose, some buttons missing
                  forgetful more often than not

            Some days better, most days worse
                   just part of the prep for casket and hearse

Ann Peck June 20, 2026 at 1:54 PM Yeah, Who was it that wrote about The Golden Years? Some twenty-year old, no doubt. Gershon Wolf June 20, 2026 at 9:52 PM I think he/she'd turned twenty-eight already. At any rate, he/she was a true reservoir of knowledge, eh?

Joseph P. DiMino June 20, 2026 at 10:06 AM Yep, know the feeling. Hearse did you say? Or curse? Not so certain with myself. Gershon Wolf June 20, 2026 at 9:31 PM We gotta rally, Joe! Trump can go non-stop at age 80. We have whom to learn from. ~ gw

Kim Rodrigues June 18, 2026 at 7:41 AM Oh my! Are you prepped for black stallions, horse and buggy. No! You have too much more to say!

Tom Cunningham June 17, 2026 at 11:35 PM Lol, so true Gershon, it's all downhill when you hit 40, bits start dropping off. Tom Gershon Wolf June 20, 2026 at 9:47 PM It seemed/seems all uphill to me, Tom. lol.

Alison A Smith nee Howarth June 17, 2026 at 11:07 PM That's exactly how I felt today. I most definitely have a few screws loose in the top paddock. Gershon Wolf June 20, 2026 at 9:40 PM Well. That leaves all the bottom paddocks in good shape, at least. Smiles, Gershon
