Dainty Vials of Nectar

Dreaming of verdant meadows and amber acreage
    flush on the banks of a dazzling blue lake's ridge 

  Jousting with villains for the hand of fair damsels
    or expounding the writ close by the chancel

  Forsooth, verily, indeed and indubitably 
    though others kvetch and moan lugubriously

  Verily, forsooth, by my troth and a tad convolutedly
    I've plied my trade unfailingly jubilantly

  Always meant to be a poet from the age of nine
    ~ crafting dainty vials of nectar with zesty grape wine

Gershon, I rather enjoyed reading this poem. Reminded me of D'Artagnan of The Three Musketeers with a dash of Monty Python wit. Hope you had a nice Memorial Day. -Richard
