Always sounds grand in the moment An expression of hope To conquer every unknown valley and slope Little do we know that always means in all ways

A Late Summer Night
Shadows dance near, A darter slithers the air, A path leads nowhere.

Mellow leaves afar, Moonlight sheens on silver trunk, Late night winds soft.

December Rosebud
