Hello Mr.Parkinson,
how do you do?
Old friend of old man
I welcome you.
I thank you heartily
for coming so late.
Why? is not the question
you know best
when I was young
you did not turn
my limbs were steady
and all happiness I earned
Now you are my visitor
why should I care?
God is on my side
and I will pray forever.
