This book looks at the realities of elder life through the medium of rictameters (nine-line poems with 2-4-6-8-10-8-6-4-2 syllables).
It's amazing how much can be said in this limited form. Topics include Aging, Writing and Reading, Months and Weeks, Weather and the Seasons, Duties and Routines, Activities and Pastimes, and Observations and Reflections.
