I Am Not Who I Seem To Be

I know that I’m old and cantankerous, and can be kind of loud and quite rancorous. But in my heart lives a child playing rough, running wild, or waltzing in something more glamorous. So when I’m crotchety, ornery, or delirious, or perhaps being playful or serious, please respect and not s; I’m worth so much bigger, for my life is a story mysterious. Now remember as I’m getting older I am so much more than my folder; the stories I hide in my heart deep inside are more than I often can shoulder.
