Vintage Time
...Wild rapid peaks
of sunrise cheeks.
The man I wed, my choice was fine.
In hold of hands, whirlpool with you,
Our troubles spout a robust hue.

What Will They Learn

the country sends me off to war.

us walking in the same meadow
souls pouring into one body

Get a Good Friend
...Strong bonds don't end.
Get a good friend.
Do this and you’ll not be contrite.
