How to use old man in a sentence?
Mitch Albom, The Five People You Meet in Heaven:
And in that line now was a whiskered old man, with a linen cap and a crooked nose, who waited in a place called the Stardust Band Shell to share his part of the secret of heaven: that each affects the other and the other affects the next, and the world is full of stories, but the stories are all one.
Another part of you is already an old man, looking back on things. Waiting at the door for his granddaughter who’s trying to make her way home for a visit. You are two people still separated by an ocean of time, part of you bursting to talk about what you saw, part of you longing to tell you what it means.
The sign basically explains he’s an old man now and he has cataracts.
Gloria Delgado-Pritchett onModern Family:
