Change

The old man looks at his old home

What happened? Why are all the sails run down?


“The river, where I use to shiver

Staring at the moon daring myself

Don’t be a chump, just jump!


We use to come here with all our gear

But now everything is brown, why so run down?


What use to be my home,

may no longer be roamed


What use to make my heart flame,

it is such a shame.” 


The old man reminisced on the change.
