Begin
Pail frail beguiled-
left-feeling-alone
ugly, unworthy;
fake, shattered
broken-beyond the
passion righteous hope,
pureness... beauty, of-those-
innocent-days...
shamed... .
Lady love she paints, sepia tone skies clear,
Sunshine sunny shining-melts the clouds away
as they billow... .
Seagulls bellow float aloft the winds as
they terry each stroke bridging the
divide between land and sea... .
So begin your journey...
home,
by tomorrow... she'll
be finished, because
now, honey,
she's almost-done!
