The Bride

She stands naked hidden by a tree

Watching her hunter on the hill path

Her faithful hound has donned a disguise

To fool the stream side bees

 

Inspired by the copper engraving by Edward Calvert

 

The Swallows

Come friendly swallows

Do not hide from me

I have brought ny dear mother

To meet you today

As you must be tired from your long journey
