A COLD WINDY PLAIN
Posted on 09/04/08, 06:14 pm
I STILL CARE.
THE WORRIES WEIGHT ME.
I GROW OLD.
MY ARMOR IS TARNISHED.
I AM ALONE.
MY FIGHT IS GONE.
MY HOPE LESSENS.
I GROW WEARY , MY LANCE IS BROKEN.
THE WINDMYLLS ARE TOO STRONGE.
MY BONES TOO FRAIL.
I FEAR MY DAYS OF TILTING AY WINDMILLES ARE OVER.
MY FINERY IS TATTERED.
THE INNER FIRE I ONCE HAD IS ONLY EMBERS NOW.
MY JOINTS ACHE.
MY HORSE IS OLD. SO AM I.
MY MIND FAILS ME.
COLD HITS HARD.
THE WIND WHIPS ROUND.
I FEAR IT IS OVER FOR DON QOIXOTI AND I.

I never read Don Quixote, but many are the days that I feel I am tilting at windmills. -
