Subject(s): Likes & Dislikes


I like the weather-beaten things in life;
A seasoned silver spruce, wind-lashed, rain-splashed,
Beside a glacial stream that tumbles down
Over age-old cliffs, into a granite pool.
I like a towering, bronzy, robust man
Whose eyes have swept both hill and smoky range
And gained their crinkles buffeting years -- and men --
I love the seasoned things of life.
