Click hereYoung boys frolic in an old man’s eyes
high flown kites across wind blown skies.
Dance to the skirl of spring romance.
Grab the ring while there’s still a chance
what’s old comes new yet time does run.
Young pups tumble in an old dog’s sun.
with "grab the ring?" Cliche perhaps but it fits the poem well. I loved this lovely read. Very good!
Flyguy, the break is there in an attempt to heighten the reverse mirroring of the first stanza by the last. I could have broken it into couplets, but that isn't as much fun. This way there is more of a connection established (I hope), and the poem becomes like the two wings of a springtime butterfly. - Or at least that is what I was trying to do.
I liked the simple images and honest feel of the poem. I wondered about the stanza break; why is it there?
