Poetry
From a window in my house,
I could look through the screen;
As quiet as a mouse,
Not to be heard or seen.
I could see a young guy,
Who was crossing the street,
A woman caught his eye,
Who by chance come to greet.
In twilight of the night,
Holding hands as they walked;
To the house with a red light,
And kissed after they talked.
A harlot she was dressed,
Looked cheap but glamorous;
He was more than a guest,
Both looking amorous.
Husband gone and prepared,
To make love was her plan;
And ready to be shared,
Her body with this man.
With her seductive charms,
Persuades him with smooth lips;
As he drops all alarms,
His mind in an eclipse.
Like the steer to slaughter,
An arrow pierces his heart;
Lost a son and daughter,
God did by what took part.
Not knowing at what cost,
And what to tell his wife;
So much that has been lost,
For now and the next life.
