Thirty-One Days                                         day xxvi                                                   Tittle Page

each day we walk slowly through life,
somber solders marching through the
blood soaked forest of realities
anguishing with swelled eyes about to cry
screams for lost opportunities
missed loves of grandeur and beauty
sadness of the arrival of death
a cold and sudden loss of breath
there is nothing left
for that of my soul
so profoundly possessed
