Where Be Our Cincinnatus?
Where be our Cincinnatus? That golden hero of yore Where be our Cincinnatus? To whom even Washington swore Above reproach Pridefully evoked A common admiration Wielding power with veneration With the Aqueiβs threat abated Upon the Field of Mars, abdicated Laying down stewardship's yoke Knowing it be no golden cloak Where be our Cincinnatus? Someone upon whom we can depend Where be our Cincinnatus Amongst these common men?

The Best Way to Keep You Mine
The Best Way to Keep You Mine I never needed golden rings or promises you made, Just little acts of kindness when the sunlight starts to fade, A hand to hold through troubled times, a heart that stays so true, The best way to keep you mine is simply loving you.

Sorry to My Readers
Don't know if you have noticed me gone or even missing my comments. I haven't been writing much of late. But if you read my last entry, you will understand why. I have been dealing with multiple losses. I'm not looking for sympathy but understanding.
