RE: The Mean Old Lady On The Porch - a poem by @ericvancewalton

in #curie8 years ago

This is beautiful. I actually have a neighbor right now who seems a bit odd... But is so nice to my daughter. The old woman in this story could be her. thanks for reminding me that I'm lucky to have this neighbor.

Thank you! I think so many of the elderly suffer from lack of socialization. Depression and odd behaviors can set in quickly when people don't have regular social contact.

It's true. Illustrating this poem brought back many happy memories of my own childhood neighborhood characters. Thanks, @hanshotfirst.
