Two hearts not three my love

Only yours and mine beat together 

And that look as we stare off centre 

Tuning into radio US

The faraway glance that sees nothing

But hears everything 

Our station, our wavelength

Her spirit surely lives in all...

Notes of cinnamon and spices should keep the tempo light,
As I conduct the kitchen, for my dinner party tonight.

I go to greet my fine guests, yet moments before,
I turn back from the handle, for I'm not so sure,
Which of the four seasons should delight my decor?

To choose only one,...
