Both of these are right to the heart of things. Good work.
Thank you, dear Alice
door is locked
this is the last time
learned too late
learned too late
that love can grow cold
on whiskey fumes
on whiskey fumes
the vines of love wither
and fruit never grows
fruit never grows
when the soil has been trampled
nature bows in shame
nature bows in shame
salt strewn on cold trampled ground
and in all the wounds
JzB
nature bows in shame
forever in acceptance
folly of humans
Haha any particular family member Celestine?
No one in particular, Gilly. But it is quite common to see lots of guys boozing on payday.
Fabulous take Celestine!! loved the one drunk in love 🙂
Glad you do, my friend
