Empty shell caps falling to the floor.

We wave our flag with pride

Looming near the blue sky..

yield,
  your monotone salute
suckling praised
  a freedom from fur
  the hunt is mine

Shine out, bright pillar!
Neither fuel nor flame,
but radiance natural
beams from your heart

Standing tall dressed in regalia
twenty-one gun salute detonates
a lump lodged deep in my throat
combination pride sorrow and so much more

To you with the good soul
I salute you
For some reason
I’m always happy with you
You’re always glowing
And you walk by a million times
I’m lighting up at your every approach

Salute the humble sprout,
Staple on Christmas Day.
Synonymous some say.
Simmer for ten minutes,
Savour goodness in it.
Stored iron for muscles.
So salute those Brussels .

With tangerine sunrise the sky is suffused
As trees boast their golden and fiery-red hues.
