Don't return the tennis ball
-- Let the anger dissipate Like fog beneath the sun. For at the end of lovers' wars, One finds that no one's won. Oh, yes, one cannot help sometimes To let the fury flow Like lava forced up from the earth By pressure deep below. But each should let the other rant And rave till passions pall, Then bend down politely to Retrieve the tennis ball. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon. Free for personal or non-commercial use.
