at one time or another.
So that's what I'll do.

ReflectionsBack home, I ponder long on life.

The avocado tree was budding.
I knew you only a short while,
But it broke me to see your mother cry.

Wounded SighThe soldier let out a wounded sigh,
And tried hard not to cry.

To make all of the soul-wrenching pain of grief go away,
