An   Old  Man 
walks  His  Way.
A well trained  telecom  person,
The   octogenarian ,  used to this 
Market   path, home  to 
town  shop,
 Walking stick  his  
unfailing  companion,
Pinion , under  whose  tutelage 
He  avoids   many 
unwholesome  traps,
His  usual  way, his 
much familiar
accustomed  Road, he knows 
as if   to locate in a  geographical  map
as well  as in his  mind,
each  and  every  stentorian
 voice,
mothers  chiding  their 
wards,  he identifies..
HE  curses  the   loud speaker  
Piercing  his    already 
 deaf  ears.
One  hand to  serve 
as a  sun shade,
to  have  a 
clear view,
The  roadside  flower 
sellers  
Know  this  veteran ,by the  tap,
A  regular  kiss 
on the road,
Long  shadow  in the return   path,
He  falls in  love with,
Blesses his spring  of 
Life on this  Earth.
