THE DEATH OF MADAME GEORGE


I wanted to keep,
1968
to myself...

said the boy wearing
his badge of
faith.

And, in the fortunes
of time and
space,

a strange
awakening took
place.

He kept her secret
during that summer
of jail -

when the birds awoke them at dawn,
and love did
prevail.

Each sharing their scents
of summers long
gone;

under the summer moon
and the at the rising
dawn.

But the past had to go
and a future put in its
place.

And all would be forgiven
for the years of
waste.

Then Madame George died,
taking her memory and
laughter...

And so they both lived,
happily ever
after.
