The Red Foxy
smiled while
The Little Prince
frowned..
to The Ones
that we tamed
we remain
duty-bound.

Just as it is
for a field
that is bound
to its wheat..
It is our job
to nourish
our loved ones..
when they are
in need.

For indeed,
we are beholden
to The Ones
we learned to
cherish dearly.

Words may
belie
their deepest
truth..
alas, the heart
still sees it..
oh.. so.. clearly.
