THE HARDSHIP OF TWO LADS
Elegancy present itself forever,
The lovely Verona best than ever,
Bridges annihilated in recent enmity,
But verona never vanished in its gaiety.
The scribe traveled enormously,
met on the foothill of Verona accidentally,
Two young boys emerging suddenly,
By wayside, selling fruits briskly.
The lads displayed strangeness,
Tangled hair,brown skins indicating shabbiness,
Tiny skinny fram loose tunic revealed poverty,
Dark eyes of the lads expressed honesty.
The young boys toiled continuously,
The hard seasons troubled unrelentingly.
Troubled economy of the town brought openly,
Hardship,still the lads worked unremittingly.
The untold melancholy of lads mounted mournfully
One's shoulder used as pillow gravely,
Unsold newspapers kiss their feet teasingly
Still, gloomy night they waited patiently.
The author travelled with lads happily,
To the place of poleta adorned elegantly,
Chestnut groves and few pines grew ever freshly,
He expressed the beauty of poleta gracefully,
The scribe and lads visited the poleta,
The wall surrounded the large red -roofed villa,
Beyound the wall the lads disappeared suddenly
The author followed the young boys secretly.
The young lads seated beside a girl of twenty,
Wearing pretty lace jacket elegantly,
Her eyes soft and body lay faintly,
The author sighted the lads with girl wonderingly.
The good nurse broke off,her eye moist feelingly,
In early part of the war their father killed horribly,
Their abode boned,. Three thrown into street somberly,
The girl twenty was beloved sister of the lads only.
The lad's sister suffered from spine tuberculosis,
The young lads earned money for their sister's illness,
The lad's love seemed endless
Expected eternal life for their sister' happiness
