as to stand on weak legs so old
Bottles show no favor to the man so dulled

Fortune favors no mans querey
to who can help him weak and weary
God favors no man whos bind is great
to worldly addiction he cannot seperate

Sensitive write about fortune and favour,and the stark harsh reality that life does not guarantee that either will smile on you however much you may deserve it. Description is full of empathy......to the man so bold as to stand on weak legs so old..... and inevitability.... will reduce to final dust and sand, well written

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
