When you are old, gray-haired and sleepy.
When you are old, gray-haired and sleepy.
Take a nap by the fire and take down the book.
Tired of sitting by the fire, take down this book.
Read slowly and imagine the softness.
Read slowly, chasing the eyes of the year.
Your eyes used to have them, and their shadows were deep.
Your soft eyes and deep aura.
How many people love your joyful and elegant moments.
How many people loved your flash in the pan.
