In days of ill, we perchance think
that words stand still,or pass by blink
words scarred by chill and passion's ink
remain to kill, the sorrowing link.
When moved to trill, of sorrow's stink
and destruction's pill leads to the brink
with pen and quill, poets don't shrink
makes the poets swill in which we drink.

"It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures;
but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-
