Youth

Yearling struts its liberty in unstinting energy
Oblivious to reserve that shoes a gallop with dullness
Unaware of regret's stable and the binaries of age
Trotting between indolence and indulgence
Hot-blooded youth that knows the sway of vigor in
                                  every race, instinctive
                                  right out of the gate

My appreciation for your vote of confidence. Be well. Brian
