View profile & all 50 Poems / StoriesWhen I was young and bold and strong,Oh, right was right, and wrong was wrong!
My land is bare of chattering folk;The clouds are low along the ridges,
I think, no matter where you stray,That I shall go with you a way.
This level reach of blue is not my sea;Here are sweet waters, pretty in the sun,
Woman wants monogamy;Man delights in novelty.
