Ripples
Ripples In youth we search for those appealing to the eye Their beauty would cause a heart to skip and our desires live at the forefront of their presence We decorate each other in brilliance of diamonds and hold the other in high esteem as a possession Only the most fortunate can hold onContinue reading “Ripples”
