Raging thoughtlessly again
Painful to my heart

Passing under winter’s ice
Lost within the stones

Trying to dance with the fog

Basics are easy
Love’s kernel is kindness
Absent, love is dead.

Early on a Winter’s Morn.

No wind, pre-sunrise,
Tranquility descending.
Winter, free of snow.

Gifted, talented and bright?
We tear our girls down.
