Waxing and Waning Poetic
To help a man be what he is
alone in all his glory
The old Druidic Elven way
'fore ever words were writ
with rhythym and rhyme
to help us see
the shape and taste
and need indeed
of apples yet unbit
To know what's right
and use his right
of individual freedom
druids' suggested story rhyme
painting words of admiration
to hold the beauty of our time
in constant view to help us see
the shape and taste
the need in deeds
As apples yet unbitten
