BREATH (Free verse) by ShaNoN+960317485
In sleep or in wake, in slumber or in hast What can thee not hold for ye dear life? Adolescence to come of age, to time till death What must be that ye never give but ever take? Come shallow while some come deep Why ‘art they both a concern for ye to keep? In cold it makes smoke but none in heat What so dear is it that it ye must for ever try keep?

Up the ladder: blue lilac and I (edit)

greets ShabigNlittleOHbigN

A clever riddle, pleasantly done. Didja mean to leave the "e" off of hast[e]? Hard to tell with the dialect.

I'm guessing that means, "yes" (you meant to leave it off)
