Husband Makes Me Wear Girdles

"Magic of Life & Cream of leek for" A decent contest "The Elves & The


Magic Life

In a field I saw an acorn:
seemed so dead, useless.
And in the spring I saw the acorn
put down roots and rise,
young oak at the sun.

sleep each autumn
and passion of every spring.
Why should not occur
in the human heart?
