SERENE SPECULATIONS

About the Book

CONFINED LOVE UNCONFINED

I believe good will always possess,
But doth not waste with greediness.
I believe fair houses are built,
And set amongst trees,
Only to be enjoyed in Peace.
Space ships are rigged
To fly beyond and return;
Hopefully-not to fall and burn.

The Sun, the Moon, and the Stars shine bright,
And are bidden and blessed for their light.

Yet there will always be men who are unworthy,
Who are false and weak, filthy and earthy,
With pain upon their shoulders,
And shame in their hearts,
Set apart-not from the animals,
With dominion over none,
-And-
I still believe that a true lover
Will always choose the right one.
