I am old
This was something I was told
Imagine he could be so bold
Hiding behind his screen

The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”. You may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you. More info can be found in the link below.
Old and frail she climbs
Each step harder than the next
She is determined
The top seems so far away
But, oh the reward that waits
~~~
Touching the heavens
The fruit of her labor shines
A glorious sight
She smiles when she reaches it
Content, she withers away

Old and tangled roots
Taking days to breach the earth
Teach about patience

Old books sitting on a shelf
Not sure if I’ve read them all myself
Bindings with edges, chipped and peeling
Make them seem ever more appealing
Thinking I should open them up, peruse
Wondering which one I should choose
I’ve decided, this is the perfect book!
I’ll get lost in the waves with “Captain Cook”

Scroll to see more of this quaint castle 🙂
Kip’s Castle contains a 9,000-square-foot mansion that replicates a medieval Norman castle, and a 6,000-square-foot two-story carriage house. (Wikipedia)
