In
Between lines
A forest
Beside a field
At the bottom of a hill

A messenger
Down
Prone
In a ditch
His back against a tree

In his vest
Against the heart
A letter you never
Read
Wrote
Sent
Received

He lies
Dead
The world
That could
Would
Might have been
But never was

Among weeds
Reeds
Withered grasses

Autumn leaves
That though they rustle
Do not speak

Aw Helen,

I just don't consider this a venue
for jingles.

Actually, I have a reputation
for a, albeit wry, sense of humor.

Be honest; if it was all that bad
we would have shot ourselves long ago.

Calm Seas
Fair Winds

"In

there are far too many lines.

Always a pleasure to read you.
