I only want to now be sure
how to live a life ever pure
live a life immersed in rhyme
one to last at last for all time
Distill down all these thoughts
escape from shoulds and oughts
as I wind my wandering way
in search of all that is left to say
For it is always such the thrill
when I get the chance to distill
a chance to put pen to paper
jot down a little daring caper...
Starting from a different place
I return once again to face
both mask and mirror
now that such things are clearer
Just like grapes into a fine wine
I pen purity upon every line
prepare again for this communion
reveling in this sacred reunion
