Letting Loose
Letting Loose
.for public domain
We each throw our part of friendship away,
avoiding the sorrows and future decay
we would face if we stayed together.
But does not misery love company?
Do not dirges shadow odes,
fair days chase foul weather?
Hope may go out with the bath water,
Faith and Charity's daughter
cherished no more than a feather,
yet the Spring Eternal shall flow,
let Grace wash us clean from below,
but it is we must let loose the tether.
