perhaps she was  pushy     
      shaping between difficult matters

           inquisitive to a fault. Yr Russian farrier dog and sleds run
    (y)our  love ran out 

    a tank depleted of letters or    
as when the water dries up having held its own long in the letters, the Battle of Hastings

 
the brook changing  course backing up it's drive to far fetched channels your body 

close to narrow grabbed by the tilt  in the cope of awnings

 garnering its

Crying my sobs my sons! My children! Chronos Napoleon to his guard the battle hardened

 Veteran of the Revolutionary days the halcyons hopes

Were they an illusion after all?

   Or in the sally gardens the changing pace of fears
