 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

My Yamakah


I really must be superman
to have lived for all these years
fighting life and all life holds
while fighting back the years.
I have lived through wars where good men fell
sometimes injured when I tried
but always my wounds would quickly heal
though I often sit and cry.
My mind still strong to do what's right
though my bodies getting old
I am not as able as I once was…
but my bones are not yet cold.
I really feel like superman
but I have no cape to wear
just a little rounded yamakah
where once I grew real hair!
