Bourgeois Sentimentality
A beagle puppy napping on the hearth
The morning offering whispered at dawn
Young lovers flirting on a garden bench
The chair in which Granddaddy used to sit
Cranky old men who feed the birds each day
Cool boy-band posters on a teenager’s wall
Red spider-lilies in the autumn sun
And children’s toys scattered all over the yard
“Bourgeois sentimentality!” some cry:
Well, yes, yes it is – by the Grace of God
