A WISE AND WIZENED MAN

 

 

A wise and wizened man

 had wandered

in wonder

throughout

                                                                  

this pitiful and beautiful world.

Grand parades and great skyscrapers

 were naught to his soul.

The oceans, rivers, and mountains

 captivated his soul.

Brahms and Beethoven

 captivated his heart.

Butterflies and flowers captivated his heart and soul.
