All Those Castles All those castles I thought would stand Dissolved beneath a times quick sand An under- tow of oceans flow Seems to be the changing woe I know now that they could not last Those young impressions of the past The feeling that no harm can come This gift of life I had become Too soon I heard the pipers dance And sat a horse with pointed lance Pounding down a time worn lane With feelings of inane insane Incompetence and changing prime Peeled away by acids time Aged me to a fossils crone A wily bag of skin and bone And now I stern a skin of thick With nothing burning but the wick |

And now I stern a skin of thick With nothing burning but the wick nahhhh, anyone who can write poetry, rhyme, as you do sir, dreams on....there is a flame burning deep within...anyone who reads you, sees you... Morning Sy...loved this, facts of life, sometimes all to true...and yet, can see the visible thru each and every word, the masterful wisdom, you've inherited... Hugs |

Seymour, Too soon I heard the pipers dance And sat a horse with pointed lance Pounding down a time worn lane With feelings of inane insane It's nice to know that the sheer delight of using the English Language, that is so prominent as in your words, has continued to flourish across the divide! You are a true wordsmith... Ivor [This message has been edited by ivordavies (01-21-2007 12:26 PM).] |
