In Early December

In early December
I heard
The dawn bird
And did remember
Another year
Will soon end.

My friends
Are growing older.
I hear
Pretty young women
Ask me
About family matters.

There will be
No more sinning.
Merely hot tea
And matters
Of domesticity
For me.

        I now have little old ladies with their wheel-pushers passing me on the footpath … maybe I am already going backwards, and I’ve lost forward gear …

      Take care, Ivor. Those little old ladies seem sweet, but they can be very vicious in my experience! Seriously, I go at a fair old pace, and often find elderly gentlemen and ladies with walking sticks standing to one side and saying “please go-ahead”. I sometimes think how one day this may well be me. Best wishes. Kevin
