The Old
A Vintage-Monday Haiku
What is Vintage-Monday you ask? I acquired a bunch of rather wholesome and rather useful vintage things on a Monday. A number of aged books, a metal cup, and a mysterious wooden kitchen utensil. Thus, in honor of that most amazing haul, I propose we all write a Haiku or flash fiction, themed of the good ‘ol things in life. The items and wisdom we inherited from our grandparents or mayhap even ancestors that our family members barely remember.
Yes!
All these things...
Write about them!

Of wise mind is he,
His life was hardship and joy -
To learn is to live.
Ooh I’m in! Here you go -read aged as one syllable 😂:
The scent of aged books
Ancient dust motes just released
Vellichor abounds
Youth wasted on the young?
Old school wins new generation any day.
Wise man said only fools will…
