Great Grandpa(he is kind of an angry person)

Wrinkled hands lay clasped in his lap as he reminisces about the past
sitting on the porch swing, he looks to the sky
"I never should have left Louisiana, this damn town is nothing but worthless"
he proceeds to inspect the beautiful yard before him
squirrels on the feeders attempt to chase away blue jays
flowers bloom before his eyes
and those eyes that have seen far too many bad things
eventually find their way to the garage door
as he makes his way across the lawn his wife calls from the backdoor
"That damn nosey woman," he mutters
he gets on the riding lawnmower he has charished for so long
and mows the lawn for the fourth time that day
