"oh how remarkable",
my front porch says
a welcoming mat,
a porcelain frog,
and a marble foyer
...and i've never been to scandinavian lands
frostbitten icing lines northernmost shores
the cold is brooding,
love will prevail
of course it will always-
but it's just that i choose to employ...
an easy retirement here could suffice
don't interject my utopian dream
a life in a land that i equated to peace
no child, this is not a delusional fleeting
bright-lighted is the sky,
clouds grace high peaks
oh how remarkable
is every lovebird,
oh how remarkable
it is to me...
