Jezebel, that Jezebel,
rings on fingers, toes,
dances in the limelight
of all she’s come to know
but Guinevere, that Guinevere,
beauty personified,
merely offers up her tears
as evidence of soul.

They trickle slowly, softly,
from her knowledge base
for she knows that love’s a grandiose thing
and one to be revered
by even the most lowly
or the seemingly so.

There are no lowly beings
in her now endless world
but she can see how people learn
to disregard the soul
and invade her personal space
with unwanted particles
of narcissistic energy.

But she smiles through her tears;
forgetfulness must always come
before conscious recall
of the most high.

Guinevere, that Guinevere,
still lives today, you know,
for the semblance of her archetype
is somewhere in the world
far away but not apart
from her Sir Lancelot!

Thank you, Eric. I wanna write like you do but I guess once a story teller, always a story teller. I'm surprised that I haven't been kicked out of Pip yet.

Take care
Helen

Ohhh, dear Helen, you say this truth ever so captivatingly!

One of my favorites of yours!

Thank you, graeshine2006. I guess I'm like one to stay around when I know something's good for me but your comment has certainly helped that knowing. Thanks.

Thank you dear Margherita. We probably all have a touch of Guinevere in us but that Jezebel so much more "out there" is more demanding of attention and she gets it. Still, we are as we are but sometimes it takes a lifetime to know how we are.

Love

Thank you so much, Ida! I really do appreciate your comment because I know I tell "stories" and don't write proper poetry - a touch of Guinevere perhaps?

Gee, don't apoloize for story telling or I will be excusing myself for every post.

Thanks, Brett. Can't have you excusing yourself now can we so I'd better carry on - not that I really have much choice.
