A love in verse

We Need a Lift

Nothing luminous everything drab, 

The streets are wet without the cheer of rain

The window plants, too weary to complain,

Droop drearily; a last attempt to grab

Their interest, then fade. We need a girlie dear

Dark hair, blue eyes, to sing a song maybe

To give out kisses and kind words to me,

Or just to be around. She’s far, I fear,

Return to us tomorrow; come not late,

And free us from our melancholic state.

Do Not Regret

Why should one so good and fair

From the world’s store find delight

With a sixty-year-old man?...

Cassie, Fifteen

Now you have made a great day.

As sleep draws curtains over Cassie’s mind

Sweet and lasting things are left behind...
