Pluck the last soft memory
from the crookedness of life's
bitter fingers
embrace it...
Remember...
skipping along the seams
of fields of love
and waters of purity
sheltered from
the burning breath of realities
keep me warm
when I am held captive
by the world's
cold, hard hands
and remind me of
morality and innocence
once again
