Just Thinking!

I retired,

retired to bed,

with a sad feeling,

and pain in my head.

I had visions,

of old days,

and old people,

that now are dead.

Sad that they,

they are gone;

I watched old trail,

old trails in my mind

of logging days out back,

when in the cold,

we could look through,

through the cracks

in our shack.

As I thought,

I slipped away,

and dreamed a dream,

of another day.
