Premium Member Looking Glass of Yore

Oh the heady days of youth
        Fondly now recalled
Evoke such sweet reverie
        Comeliness enthralled
Reflections were kind
        In a looking glass of yore
   Memories enshrined

YORE
bethinks
know by heart

born to borrowed lives
wide-spreads, a worthy life
stands I, light, at tunnel's end.

Premium Member In Days of Yore, He'd Snore

     In days of yore
       her husband snored
     Her nightly grief
       knew no relief  

     But then by chance
       she learned to pole-dance 
     which promptly cleared his sinuses
       ~ Though that had its plusses and minuses

Nightingale:  "You can never laugh if you don't know how to smile.  If you learned how to bow, everybody can be pleased  without your wile."
African grey:  "If I can whistle or sing, will I be heard and liked?"

Premium Member From Days of Yore


From days of yore, from ancient times long before,
     were prophets, and bards and sages;
these men of lore, who wrote of fate and more,
     were scribes of the scroll of ages.

Today we know, from what the documents show,
     that these men were highly revered;
so long ago, these souls spoke of tomorrow;
     and now they have all disappeared.

Thoughts of Yore

There's nothing like a pressured toot
to get you out of bed.
The moving sheets, the rustled beat;
of flatulence ahead.

That very sound to wake you up
and start your day off right.
With little push to shake you up
and mark your way in flight.

That everything you go to do
will be as night before.
When all you ate was beans and franks
and thoughts were farting yore.

Think back, way back
  to days of yore
The simplest things today
  were such demanding chores

Bake bread from scratch
  Slaughter a chicken
Salt it and drain the blood
  Fetch the well-water
Trudge through rain and mud

Sew and knit all your clothes
  Cut the firewood and keep it lit
Wash and press laundry by hand
  Eke out a living from stubborn land

We often say that life was less complex back then
  ~ Though we can't tell a chicken from a hen

Antiquity

If we'd lived in olden days days of yore the golden days and I were a troubadour I'd serenade you with my lute unless I had a flute to toot or go more than the extra mile and sing a song to make you smile not with the end of a lance would I beg my lady's favour but gallantly request a dance mayhaps a carol we could savour to fight and kill the dragon and do it all with no fear I'd pull Excalibur from the stone for my dear Guinevere

cara of yore

Taking part in tomorrow
Over and again?
Asked of more for who?
To avoid where i don’t know
His time in a lights, blasts
My times haven’t run, home
Learning how i leave, beneath
Beneath my custom
Devoured in still shots
At becoming the he , she would expect of me, another shim
Today and them, never my ways
How i plan to let your rows of fatale petals
Chain me in you hearts
Running out of airs to whips
Ungrippable blasts from my days
Behind your perscriptions

ancient and near
