A Gentleman's Trappings

A Gentleman's Trappings Crisply pressed suits hang in a dark closet Starched white shirts lie untouched in dresser drawers Bland ties hang limply awaiting his touch Highly shined black shoes and socks neatly arranged These trappings of a gentleman gone to the grave All waiting to be claimed by the Good Will thrift store Copyright ©2008 Don Tyson
