Premium Member Calling Card of the Bard

In mystery wrapped
Forever behind the scenes
Did he pen King Lear
Othello, Hamlet ~ or was
He a Midsummer's Night Dream

And so the bravest bard
Begins to buckle with the weight of brutal years—
His singing disappears.

There once was a skunk in my yard,
And although I'm no bard,
I'll tell you the story,
of how I won glory,
As soon as my door is unbarred.

Snow is falling hard,
purple finches stay in their warm nests;
