Friendships worn golden like old suspenders
Stretching without comment over bellies
Grown round with the years.
Hands of warped oak
Raised barns and reared children,
Wearing rings full of memories of women and wives.
Beneath sun bleached caps proclaiming past glories
The wisdom of decades, not pages.
Life on the bench, a daily conference of ages.
Advice freely distributed upon request.
Office Hours: Dawn till Dusk.
No Appointment Necessary.
