Chapter 10
Chapter 10 begins with my arrival home around eight o’clock at night. As I sorted through my mail, which mostly consisted of junk, one white envelope caught my attention. It had no return address, and the name was typed on it with what appeared to be an old manual typewriter, a detail that seemed unusual. The envelope was postmarked from Hopps Ferry, New Hampshire. Inside, I found a photo of Aidan, my future son-in-law, looking about fifteen pounds heavier than I remembered. He was smiling alongside a…-

On Vers De Société
On Vers De Société opens a thoughtful exploration into the delicate craft of sociable poetry, the kind meant not for grand epics or deep philosophical contemplation, but for gentle wit, refined charm, and light emotional touch. Rather than originate in the ancient worlds of Greece or Rome, where societal hierarchies and the exclusion of women shaped cultural expression, this genre blossomed later in the elegant courts of France. It was there, in an atmosphere of leisure, subtle flirtation, and cultivated…-
