THE PUB PHILOSOPHER

 

Wolves in sheep’s clothing

Can be found; but many more

The other way round.

 

The emptiness of

The empty nest may challenge

Those who have been blessed.

 

Maidens, kids, castles,

Dinners and days. All ruined,

But in different ways.

 

When he lived more as

He should, he found less mess to

Clear up afterward.

 

Girls who wear glasses

Will often get passes in

Evening classes.

 

No pain, no gain, that’s

True. But the pain was mine, while

The gain went to you!

 

I now disagree

With the younger me. And the

Older me? We’ll see.
