A year ago, I think

Through static lens observance
The spotlight’s life revealed
The brightest starlights emerald
With deepest crux concealed

Distinguished deeds delightful
The expression lights the room
Finding muses commonalities
Such profession unpresumed

Travels of the mind and body
Destination yet unknown
Hand in hand without misgiving
To reap what has been sown

Publishing the years now gone
An honest heart’s repentance
Imploring, beseeching clemency
And longing for acceptance

Courting efforts now ceaseless
The conclusion now begins
If all is fair in love and war
Be sure to pick the twins
