This poem opens Chapter Two giving the second biased view told in the first person.
“You don’t have to worry”
She tells him from across the fence
“It’s dirty for dirty—it’s only fair”
Hence, she watches on and sighs
Without haste or hurry she waits for him
“What a sorry face you get to wear” He replies
Then he forgets that she was ever there Terry D. Robertson

Another good poem, Terry, to let you know what the chapter ahead holds. I think that it's a good thing to do a short poem in front of each chapter to give you in sight in what you are about to read.
"Fill My Eyes" was such an interesting book about two brothers, I can't wait to read "The Backside of Yesterday"
In this eccentric tale set in a small town in northern India, Pawan Mishra masterfully weaves ingenuity and sarcasm in a manner that’s simultaneously hilarious and tragic.
Dreamin’ Dreams is more than a collection of stories; it is a celebration of Irish life, adventure, and the unforgettable characters who make growing up in Ireland a journey worth remembering.
