Notes About The Poem

                                                  Image result for doodles on old  gate

Tarnished Gate

Tarnished gate leans firm…surviving my youth’s wildly-drawn graffiti.

I wonder what your graffiti look like, Nette! Mine used to mostly show windmills, flowers and birds. Enjoyed this one-liner; I like being taken back in time:) hugs // paul

Our gate has my doodles imprinted on it; a hallmark of those young days! Incredibly creative that raises the poetic bar!
