Of Cornucopia Cornucopia holds no treat It lacks the food of mental meat It will not feed this bird of nest Nor build my strength to meet the test Perhaps a unicorn is need To ride the mist of mental deed To clear the day of clouds of gray To show the rainbow of my way I’ve tried the hide, seven league boots And sounded horns of many hoots Peeled the apple to the core Could not find forevermore I search within a doldrums sea Where sun and thirst has shriveled me Felt the vacuum of the past And lack a line and hook to cast The yin and yang has lost its tang I’ve lost the sound of bells that rang. |

Well rhymed and metered... Peeled the apple to the core Could not find forevermore ~ I enjoyed that couplet the best. |

I’ve tried the hide, seven league boots And sounded horns of many hoots ~~~~~ Felt the vacuum of the past And lack a line and hook to cast ~~~~ The yin and yang has lost its tang I’ve lost the sound of bells that rang. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *smiling at you* for those couplets of VERY VERY COOL!!!! The yin and yang has lost its tang Nah---it just needed some Sy-rhyme...now its in its Randy prime  *ww*     |

I search within a doldrums sea Where sun and thirst has shriveled me Felt the vacuum of the past And lack a line and hook to cast well thats an easy solution...we'll simply have to send you a line and hook to cast...and all will be well...smiles and hugs...good morning Sy! |

Perhaps a unicorn is need To ride the mist of mental deed To clear the day of clouds of gray To show the rainbow of my way  I've called on Merlin for you, our Sy, that a unicorn will soon heed his plea for you to fly, travel far and wide to find those mists far out at sea  |
