Choices
Youth has fled, hair gone gray
Friends and family went away
Enjoy the seasons while I may
Stroll the city in the day.
Music & Art help fill the time
As can books on love and crime
Parks, the ocean, nature walks too
Happiness can come from a riverfront view.
Perhaps I won't see China or Rome
But I can visit friends at home
And talk of days and other places
While I see their smiling faces.
