Get Rid Of The Advertisements

Vest-Pocket
 
In the closet
of
memories

Hangs a vest
tattered
and
stained
with time

A dusty
remnant
of youth

When
invincibility
was in it's prime
*
This vest
worn
like a shield

Embraced
adventure
one day at a time

Like Don Quixote
battling
windmills

Dragons
of the world
Dragons
of the mind
*

Now hanging
in
memories closet
this vest
A remnant of time

Yet

In
the vest-pocket
beats the heart
of
this garment

Forever young
and
In it's prime
