How was school today?

Fine.

Did you learn anything important?

Who lives on a high hill
Overlooking a man-made lake

My heart pumps…in fear of losing you…uoy…u…

from the rock, then foolishly

This is like a pilgrimage, a try tae come every year,
Gather at the cairn, meet old friends, wipe away a tear.

Ugg and Ogg, on a rock they sat.
 The pair were in hiding from the sabred cat.
 They had hunted for a whole week long.

Just like I did with my High School days...at least in my mind every May as long as the memories stay with me...I know they won't stray...

Washed ashore on the lost island

Skin already peeling on the beach

Burning from the hot green summer sun

Meat melting off to become bone

Jumping back into the water

Cooling off with the clams and fish 

Washing the sand...

Fighting times…without any reason, faced with treason

Victorious flirtatious foreplay

I awoke early - now my body will sleep,
though thoughts rise like the Azores

foaming its swirling eddies and sad pits

nor withstand jagged cuts and hardest hits!
