Celebrations, Public Displays
and that other stuff
new years day gets us going
when our eyes are still glowing
valentines are for lovers
romance under the covers
with sweet words of passion
releasing chain reactions
whispers in the shadows
music soft and mellow
then it's on to parades
on St. Patty's Day
green beer celebrations
toasting past generations
then april fools on display
as participants gather to play
icy skies turning gray
like that one easter day
the sadducees sad cabaret
pure evil set on replay
then, margaritas and limes
come around on may 5
mother's day comes with love
I remember mine with a dove
memorial day, well deserved
for all the soldiers who served
we can't forget to honor our dads
mine was the best you could have
july fourth dressed in stripes
fireworks fill up the skies
labor day in september
halloween in october
veteran's day to remember
just in time to give thanks, november
christmas comes round again
when we feel what is to be kids
with so much to glad for
why the hell do we choose war

The Duelist
The rays of a dying red sun flashed against the onrushing blade. The grey beards say the key to dueling lies in size, speed, reach, righteous fury, whatever the person in front of them pays them to say. Matteo knew better than any it was none of these and had an undefeated record on these sands to prove it.
