many chores and many cups of coffee

so you hope that these lines are beautiful lines.

And you hope that someone stops to read the signs

some effort to resist catastrophe

and there was smiles and dance in more then half

so you hope that these are beautiful lines.

a simple search for the ones who can laugh

To practice everyday as life refines

and write and write volumes of paragraphs

so you hope that these are beautiful lines

an abstract form for these romantic rhymes.
