Poem: Coupling with Shadows

There’s always a smile on her lips
She’s careful that it never slips
To reveal what’s behind the mask
With a laugh for anyone who asks
Who she is away from the crowd
It’s a question that is not allowed

Poem: Couplet of War

The sound of horse hooves gallop across plains
As the boys with their trumpets play their refrains
In their gleaming metal armor polished bright
Charge rows and rows of the mounted knights
Forward on in martial order towards the rising sun
