Camelot

CAMELOT


In nonesuch age was there a world so fair
Wherein the rule of justice led the way
All men could prosper with good work and care
With  sun and law and honor every day
Twelve good men true gave all an equal share
In nature’s bounty,   and held careful sway
An ideal place and evil there was not
The myth impossible of Camelot

I thought about doing a Camelot piece. I'm so glad I didn't. Yours is terrific. Blessings, Rhonda
