'Soon My Love'
the shadows will be seated
the wind will grow calm
and adversity defeated
grand illusions will shatter
pensive marches cease
as the droning voices of discontent
quell to gradually make their peace
the begonias will bulk up again with pride
and foster their floral and green to bloom
and alas you and I will take to
our distinguished places
upon the centered bliss of the stage
so the world can see two actors
who no longer act
but live out the joy that was theirs
to resume
love's very own conquerors of the page............
