As I was walking down the lane I saw her An octogenarian Frail and wrinkled Shrunken Yet beautiful A smile so radiant Lighting up the whole lane Selling flowers Working at an age When she needs to relax My heart went out to her Tears welled up in my eyes Why aren't the old Taken care of By family and relations Why are they left To fend for themselves I had no answers Image source Google #downthelane#yqbaba
