Dimples on a sweetheart, soft like marzipan
In dim lit rooms, reaching out and holding hands
Softly speaking lovely words, to win or to woo
The sweetest of all replies, the simple ‘I love you’
Raindrops washing away the dust from an old day
Afterwards inhaling the scent of gently disturbed clay
Colorful sunsets, colorless nights
To gaze upon the squirrels having silly little fights
In all the world these precious moments abound
Or distractions I suppose, if you prefer the sound
Nearly all of life can be distracting I’ve found

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."
