Barely Audible At the edge of this bed here at the corner, I sit slowly undressing An FM station’s signal barely audible in classic chorus song suggests another time A cold spring rain, just fallen glistens where it rests on empty streets You must be asleep by now after playing your new role to someone’s grateful smile At the edge of this bed a very comfortable bed where I find little rest I sit, undressing, slowly A small pinapple lamp with its flame tip bulb illuminates the lines on this yellow writing pad And I wonder if you could again write as sweetly as you did before that other falling of a cold spring rain |

No, Arthur, just truthful. (However, I hope I am kind as well!). - Owl |
