President soldier,Pastor Navy
Money,nuts,fruit-
we'll appreciate!

To move up the slopes, preparation was fore filled,
Oh the grower of banana trees,
To...

They have been drifting for many days,
entranced with panic,...

Love overflowing – enthusiastic, a vision

Glistening in...

Kindled my soul at the time of my birth.
It feeds my craving for the boundless,
superior joys of desiring to be soulless.
Owing to the breadth-widening death. 

Like it drew the moth to the fire spot,
Your heart will...

There she was…
Walking through the corridors and into his room…
Breathtakingly gorgeous like his mother’s garden of roses.
Her scent soothes him during the sad days of winter.
