Old English Cottage

The muffled silhouette of jazz
among hallucinogenic arousal
liquefy morbid cries
summerizing a triumphant garden
raven wings forlorn the dawn
breeze of marsh swirling
shimmering maples royalty bequest
refugees of sand resting on tainted glass
"the still beauty...nature's finest balm"

Today a man discovered gold and fame,
Another flew the stormy seas;
Another set an unarmed world aflame,
One found the germ of a disease.
But what high fates my path attend;
For I-today-I found a friend.
