Topping on a Sundae center of whipped cream
Straight from the jar a tasty treat

Fresh from the grocer

The ChisolmsIn a crepitated house, lived vagrants.
They came from the North as homeless.
The mother was mixed and the father was white.

Life Without HerAs tears flow down our faces in sad streams
Our minds drift away to bittersweet dreams
With heads held high, we push out bad thoughts
We all just make sure that we love her lots
Life without her is a hard story for us to tell
But we know that...

Walking in the WoodsWalking in the Woods
Walking in the woods is an incredible time
Always. Just missing the time. All the time
All the time. Every time. Missing life is far
So far

Your RemembranceYour Remembrance
A time, just a time, lived to you in his heart, passed age, this love
Age, nothing remained, an empty marble tablet in a cemetery park
Your path walk is late, didn’t you see? Worn, unreadable letters
On the stone, all the noble sentences were addressed...
