Leon Enriquez Poet Quatrain

Joyful Vanguard

There was a time
When lines were clear;
A certain rhyme
Was set to steer.


Those were the days
Of simply plain;
A worthwhile stray
On pleasure-pain.


There was a gaze
In sweetness sad;
A simple craze
In thoughts most glad.


Those were the ways
We stopped to look;
Set in sure say
In tinted book.


There was a tale
In crispy page;
Thoughts we availed
From stage to stage.


Those days of glee
Indulged in peace;
Naive and free
With joy and ease.


There was a time
Where mimics stooped;
A square where mimes
Dazzled and drooped.


Those times have come
And now are gone;
Those rhymes that sum
Loiter to taunt.
