Home Alone", a painting by a Viet vet, Norm Bergsma, Kirkland, WA                                  

Quiet

Hold me tight while the sun is still asleep
Kiss me wholeheartedly while the moonlight is still deep
The silky clouds are dancing a swan-song
Don't wander anymore, here's my love for you to keep...
