Premium Member Upon a Meadow
Upon the meadow where you were born, I make a vow to stay by your side, And though my heart in anguish is torn, Tear-filled eyes remember our last ride. You breathe hard as you lay in the grass. Your heart beats like the thunder of earth. In its own time, life will let you pass To look for the mare who...

Premium Member Not clean enough to spit upon

For on your face, the stain of wrongs is drawn, indelible, And your words, beget bitter, pointless heartless disdain. So soiled is your soul, and all grace is so far gone, Forgiveness is...
