Analysis of Harmony justifies…
Chief Speak-a-little-French 1980 (Calgary)
Harmony justifies…
The onward march of time
The warblers and dragonflies
The ants and twinspots
We are not just forgetful
We write poetry about
The forgotten…
Harmony justifies!
And so sullen
I was at daybreak
And so enchanted
I was at dusk
