Older Still - Paperback

by Tom Carnicelli (Author)

When I was working, I used

To leave home just before sunrise.

We live right by the ocean, and

The sky at that moment is amazing:

Bright orange rising from the horizon,

Banks of purple clouds.

I always wished

I could sit for a while and look at it.

Now that I'm retired, I do.
