old
stone
absorbs
emotions
hurts
feelings
joys
just
touch
it
feel
it
listen

old
wood
holds
meals
people
things
been
gone
and
to come
just
touch
it
feel
it
listen

old
trees
bend
under
old
weights
they follow
uneasily
new
storms
yielding
limbs
new
branches
new
shelter
new life

old
people
absorb
hold
bend
as
worlds
pass by
but
memories
remain
do not
walk
by
smile
take time
listen
