The full moon and milky snow illuminate the nighttime landscape I found myself lost on the mountain.

Winter Awakens My Care
Winter Awakens My Care
anonymous Middle English poem, circa 1300
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

Winter awakens all my care
as leafless trees grow bare.
For now my sighs are fraught
whenever it enters my thought:
regarding this world's joy,
how everything comes to naught.

Original Middle English text:

Wynter wakeneth al my care,
Nou...

Medieval Poem V

A Proverb from Winfred's Time
anonymous Old English poem, circa 757-786
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

1.
The procrastinator puts off purpose,
never initiates anything marvelous,
never succeeds, and dies alone.

2.
The late-deed-doer delays glory-striving,
never indulges daring dreams,
never succeeds, and dies alone.

3.
Often the deed-dodger avoids ventures,
never succeeds, and dies...

Exceptional thought entered my old head
sure this was an excellent idea

so drove to ikea, showing no fear

Meeting Him in sweet fellowship I should not miss.

Premium Member Twas the Night When Christmas Went Wrong
Twas the night before Christmas - came like a flash,
Mob of gingerbread reindeer prodding elves for cache.

The Clausman reigning, doling out orders this stint.
Lady of his, keeps his tongue supplied with peppermints.

The vainglorious list of children, like snow through the Pole,
Now hides in the cloud...

Baking Class
They had gathered from all around
With special invitation in hand
No professional was allowed
To take part in this grand
...event

Just your every day, run of the mill
Person without culture or fame
Putting their baking skills to work
In hopes of being named
...winner

As the tickets were gathered
And members were assigned...

The Dirty Looking Glass
The world would be a better place if people didn’t have to look through a dirty looking glass.
	
Walking along the path of life,
	It’s supplied with collections of pain and strife.
	People judging each other’s races,
	Spitting nasty words into their faces.
	Everybody is diverse from one another,
	But they...

If We Only Knew
If we only knew!

We are on the other side,
From when you lied,

If we only knew

That you were there to hide,
All the way on the other side,

If we only knew

When you’re going to make the big stride
To be my bride,

If we only knew

That you would leave...
