Idly waiting next to him a remembrance of his youth, long lost and soon forgotten. Those wheels will not spin for him, not anymore. Just sit and watch and wish and wait…

What are you saying, cmatta? This is a profound man – maybe looking at such a small toy and thinking of life passing by; or maybe that he never had a scooter; or maybe that he wishes he had a bit or youth or a bit of strength to hop into that scooter and laugh and dream like a kid!

Song of this photo:
Es un buen tipo mi viejo
Que anda solo y esperando
Tiene la tristeza larga
De tanto venir andando.
Yo lo miro desde lejos
Pero somos tan distintos
Es que creció con el siglo
Con tranvia y vino tinto….

Great spin on it, Jacarrio! I’d never heard the song before. Listening to it right now by Piero, and it definitely takes the image to another level.
All great comments, folks! Keep’em coming!
