Read a Sample Poem

Veranius, my best friend, back from / three hundred thousand miles and years, / among your brothers and now home / with Penates watching over your aging mother. / You’ve come. This news is beauty. / See you’re settled and I’ll hear of Spain, / the land, your trips, and the customs— / How was it? Pass the bottle here I’ll kiss / your neck and drink what your eyes / and bones have savored. You are pure / beauty and I am blessed with joy.
