for swift retort has choked your Gallic might.

Fragrant Families
I was a skillful, amiable nursery worker, cultivating blooms in a greenhouse,
Like feverish and fragrant blooms, often grown in redbird's green treehouse.

As June full moon...

In everything, don’t they do...

I feel the dawn preparing her day
With little, hushed peaceful gestures
Then upon opening my eyes, I greet her crimson smile
Slowly peering over the horizon, whilst over I turn
And say good...

the bane of our small bungalow

At the start...
