My thoughts on everything from albacore tuna to zebras |
Lost, One middle-aged adult-child Has gray beard and ponytail Is well fed and friendly Doesn’t drink or smoke Smiles and laughs frequently Has poor eyesight, Is deaf in one ear and can’t hear from the other Missing three teeth Has an acquaintance with: Gout, arthritis, kidney stones, gall stones, enlarged spleen, cirrhosis, heel spurs, bulging discs, pinched nerves, shot nerves, high blood pressure and occasional bouts of “feelin’ poorly” Can predict weather using various body parts; knees, hips, hands, shoulders, etc. Guilty of sometimes thinking highly of himself and sometimes not. Wonders often what it all means. Can often be found fishing (not often enough), working in the garden, riding steam trains, writing short stories or watching the clouds roll by, enjoying life. Feels most comfortable, relaxed and loved in the arms of his wife, the love of life. If found: Do not medicate Engage in pleasant conversation, laugh and smile If he’s fishing, join him. If he’s watching clouds roll by do not disturb. Lost is a good thing. |
