Old Feldman by ©Richard J. Budig 1999 It's not that death is such a sullen visitor As it is the frame of mind of the visited Take old Feldman for example First left alone by his sickly wife And then by sons taken in war So that old Feldman sat alone at home Day upon day and night upon night Fondling the pistol of one of his brave sons Which he refused to use when a madman Entered his house and shot him nigh unto death For fear that in so doing he would die alone |

Really enjoyed this piece broker6...very sad and very well written..... The last line was a heartbreaker... ------------------ A soul that writes from the heart and shares it, truly gives a gift extraordinaire! |
