Complete Trust
What do you trust completely?
<> <> <>
… the habit of the mouse?
… the shelter of the house?
… the button of the blouse?
… the account of the spouse?
<> <> <>
… the peril of the curse?
… the tempo of the verse?
… the money of the purse?
… the account of the nurse?
<> <> <>
… the fusion of the blend?
… the sureness of the end?
… the method of the trend?
… the account of the friend?
<> <> <>
… the quiet of the calm?
… the panic of the bomb?
… the healing of the balm?
… the account of the mom?
<> <> <>
… the value of the pelf?
… the mischief of the elf?
… the surfeit of the shelf?
… the account of yourself?
