Two Pink Lines
Do you remember how excited you would get when you were about to test? Do you remember thinking that maybe if you didn’t look at it till the timer rang, it might be positive.
Thinking two pink lines meant happiness. Negative after negative, one after the other, month after month. But pain and disappointment still

Part Two
He asked to stay till morning: he'd walk to get some help. I told his to grab a chair, handed him food told him to help himself. He dip toast bred and complimented the taste. We sipped wine and played cards, cigar smoke all over the place. I bought a box of stoagies, smoked up

Just two ways to go
Pray, what use vouching witless words so vain?
For men to trail, only two trails seem sane:
Youthful beauty’s well-bestowed a bosom,
Retire or else to woods, make ho nor hum.

You have to Visualize a Life for Two
one plate, a dish, a spoon, a knife
you live for one, there is no wife?
all your art pieces feature only a single
If you go to a party, do you ever mingle?
you have to visualize a life for two
your artwork must be changed immediately too
you have to buy two plates, two dishes and two knives
but please

Two Together
Boyfriend and girlfriend sing together
Of the future that is to unfold before them
Not about riches and renown but about a
Home filled with joy and life and
Of true love that knows no death.
Monsieur & Madame living in martial bliss
It starts with a vow sealed with a kiss
Eternally him for her and her for him.

Two rules of life
Life of mere moments two
Rings in at roots rules two:
Blossom as flower does,
Spread fragrance as it does,
To give love is greatest of gift,
To get, biggest trophy to lift.

Two Faces
Blurred, twisted in a pool of intoxication,
is my first face and I hate the bare controls,
I wish for no black phantom to follow me,
Its a shadow that's always in waiting......
My second face, I aspire to one day be,
its past the intense of burning trees,
and the world stirring up wasps and bees
and the inside out of

Between my two halves
Deep in to the shivering waves of mood,
have just met the other me,
through hundreds of inner layers,
unbeknown to myself
they swarmed like thousands of prayers.
A lifetime of constant spirited battle
where tumultuous emotions can not be settled.
All those other exhibited faces that have me defined,
yet many of them still non-obedient in being refined.
Now, my

World's number one and two in batting's Who's Who
Yorkshire’s blessed treasure chest best take their Test berth as they surf the crest out on the hallowed turf
The self anointed..God’s own country..didn’t rest..hasn’t disappointed..simple ploy
Plucky…lucky to be an envoy that still has the joy..zest of a boy
The honed treacle toned timbre of their timber toy
Well when you’ve researched the top of the queue in

Two cheers for
To pass from probing eyes, two cheers,
To pass from all decries, two cheers.
None, to kiss the crest of success,
To stay there ever wise, two cheers.
