The Forest of Sensation

The Forest of Sensation

Where the forest of sensation, body of lithe limberness, instead one procession of newly installed blunders

Le soleil brille

Le soleil brille, la mere est calme et plat, c’est un jour claire et brillant Dans le ciel des nuages flottaient comme des cheveaux en courant.

Jumped the gun, was working when should have been having fun,
