hear the silence
listen to silence
see the smiles of brotherhood
the blades of grass share
peaceful raucous wild chatter
tales of love lost and won sweet
days of immortality
in the Elysian Corner
acacia canopy leaves
sheltered us well listened laughed
danced to TA fellowship
blades of grass will sway again
as we listen the still nook
brings joy echoes of our youth
