Untitled, Winter 1997

Once there was a little wife
In a world of green and gold
With all things bright and shiny,
With happiness bought and sold.

Now there is a little wife
Who understands the cold
Who's been through fires and storms and wars
And now feels very old.

  1. I don't know what to say about this piece, except that I like it. I love how it reads like a limerick, but has the weight of a tome.
