More Prattle from Povey

I was almost caught Many know that I am fortunate enough to receive medical at home (Following recent surgery) three times a week.

When the body that lived at your single will, With its whimper of welcome, is stilled (how still!). When the spirit that answered your every mood Is gone—wherever it goes—for good, You will discover how much you care, And will give your heart to a dog to tear. We’ve sorrow enough in the n...
