| you made it to ninety two | 1 |
which i guess puts you | 2 |
in small company even there | 3 |
and of all your odd ideas | 4 |
crackpot theories | 5 |
and endearing idiosyncrasies | 6 |
what i remember most vividly | 7 |
is the sound you made | 8 |
while shaving | 9 |

God bless Grandpa's and uncles and old friends. — Isabelle5
interesting tribute. — SteelAngel
Like this! I've worked with the elderly for years. Simple, well done! But I wonder about the "puts you in small company" as people are living longer and longer these days. Still many don't reach 92. — wamblicante
nice. — TheJediPimpz
so sweet hank. I only noticed the rhyme on 2nd read...even sweeter. um..'are' the sounds you made?
nice poem. William would love it.

I like this flashing thought that overlooks time as it sinks into psyche. — Roz
thanks kitkat, had changed sound to sounds and forgot the is but have gone back to original. — hank
But where? — unknown
Cute...very cute. Something william probably wouldn't even notice about himself, and you noticed it and remember him for it. I have absoutely no suggestions. Very nice. — MrChris
:( Did he die? I'm glad that you captured his soul in this poem, and shared him with us. A few strong characters become immortalised in your art.
Thank you. — unknown
Full stop line six? Terrific write. — wendz
amazing i really think its a accurate and really discriptive poem. Personally and correct if i am wrong but i get the idea your trying to say when someone has left regardless the circumstance you always end up remembering their old idd habits or actions — DLBanksAWM12
