Veteran's Gaze

In the depths of his eyes, a story unfolds, A testament to trials and battles told. The weight of years, the scars of strife, Etched on his face, a map of life. His cap, a symbol of duty and pride, A badge of honor, a story to abide. The fur-lined coat, a warmth against the cold, A shield against the world's harsh tales untold. His gaze, a window to the soul, A reflection of the trials he's made whole. A veteran's story, etched on his face, A testament to the trials of time and space. His eyes, a deep well of wisdom and might, A guiding light, shining through the dark of night. A portrait of strength, of courage in his eyes, A story of resilience, a spirit that never dies.
