I AM UNCLE GEORGE-poem F, 3-10-17

CHRIST IN WINTER: Reflections on Faith for the Years of Winter

I AM UNCLE GEORGE-poem        F, 3-10-17

I am becoming
The Uncle George
Of my generation
A price tag dangling
From my new sports coat
That was out of date
Twenty years ago
Mispronouncing the names
Of cities and their rivers
Telling jokes
That no one understands
Looking at the world
From under bushy brows
And saying
What’s wrong with you?
