Acrostic: Bonus Time
2018, Olan L. Smith
Bless the gods, life is wonderful
Only thoughtless souls take what is his,
Nudges the stone and wails, I am coming soon!
Under the sod are wet bones and rotten flesh, while
Sour dirt yields a flower's renaissance.
Take the windfall, and thank each
Individual you meet―cry from righteous places
My life was rekindled long ago. Comprehend
Eternity begins with tomorrow's yesterday, as now sings.
