"Must dare to brave the hoe.
Just a few...

Isolated tentative in rosy tower
Sublime detached observer of success
Making its own life and time
Swallowing in one long yawn all the glories
Keen scented existence and sanctified its rewards
Cut off from the masters & futilifying the slaves

The Wizard's Wisdom
Skipping along with three friends by her side
Anticipation was high.
Whirling tornadoes had long disappeared;
Not a dark cloud in the sky.

Yellow as daffodils was the brick road,
Yellow the ripening corn,
And it had coloured the heart of...

Across the verdant...

To listen to tales of my youth that to them I love to relate.

With bent torso, fenced horse Corso,
Tows corpulent gent Morse into a Kent forest.

This portly source torments tense Corso to such a contentious extent

In the verdant vales below.

Of tender love and feats of old.

The Dark Wood
(Re: Old Poems)



Far away on the moor, wind creeps quiet:
When the golden rays fade and the day's gone;
From a nook rustling in the woods of night,
Cries a whippoorwill ever and anon.
Thickets skirting and swirling untill...

Perhaps I had fallen asleep
Like Rip Van Winkle
And had pleasant dreams.

She felt old and tired,
Womb heavy with child.
Around, the stately cypress trees
Stood guard, protecting the dead,

That she recollected seeing
In an old magical...

Infatuation
Into the jungle, the realm of all hazards
With love and a tucked-spear armed
The infatuated sphingid his way bravely wended
Heedless, the  hostile beasts all around scuppered.

In shady corners their merciless fangs sharpening
The sphinx moth the...
