mid- air<\/span>
awakening<\/span>
of<\/span>
a<\/span>

swallow<\/span>

Portugal Portrait<\/span>
 <\/span>

Such a breeze could<\/span>
spell romace & bring<\/span>
 <\/span>
An end to the flowers<\/span>
that move in shatter'd<\/span>
 <\/span>
Forms of promises<\/span>
 <\/span>
& shatter'd promises<\/span>
bring the dust of old friends<\/span>
 <\/span>
That dance in the neglect'd<\/span>
corner's of a sleepless night<\/span>
 <\/span>
& old friends make history.<\/span>
