The Soul of a Poet Mayhap it shall come, in lightest gay, the heart of a bard to induce my say, through tales of old, of other days, a recitation may come this way. Perchance an elegy I shall write the loss of dear ones numerous my lament and grief, both day and night, ‘tho I shan't write e’er the loss of us. To honor Theocritus I would pen an idyllic scene to suit the when that life was pure and fine of flair, and I would give it a pastoral air. If to be a lyrist of lyre and pen would I gain your heart, and then would you sing fine songs with me and join in absolute harmony. Or in silence of a moment, to muse, and then to be so joyfully enthused by the promise of your words to bring a song to my heart, that we might sing. Perchance for me, life of a trouvère such to pen with Parnassian flair thus how to capture one poet’s glance, to ink by chance an Elysian dance. To seize the heart of one who would pen, poet, bard, a muse, or to spend a night, a day, to master the write, this my wish, and my dream held tight. For the soul of a poet, I would endure that the heart of a soul I would ensure |
