Bluefield Daily Telegraph- Local Newspaper


Some seeds need coaxing.
They learned not to trust
Fickle tempered fits
Of irrational
Unseasonable blitz -
now hot, now cold.

Some souls need coaxing.
They learned not to trust
easy smiles, veiled eyes,
broken promises
and smooth, oily lies –
I love only you.
