Original typewritten page for Love, Pretty, Eternal - for Chelsey by Chris the Poet

Transcription

What is pretty is rarely, if ever, eternal The way the clouds hang at dusk, as if put there just for us, basking in hues of grapefruit , does not last for long. The clouds and sky will be drawn back and replaced by night, and even the sun will fade one dayeee But I believe some things are infinite and eternal, like Love, And if this pretty sight should return to night, my cherishing of it means it will live on in me, and the pagent of beauty goes On, and besides, the night is peautiful, too-+.
