Models of Old
I nurse a dream of being a poet
Writing like Frosts, Shakespeares and Poes
Yet each glance at old works of poets
Sees my tall dream standing on its toe
Reading the lines so old and new
I marvel at arts which sweet words paint
How so subtle their sharp curves hue
Fair etiquettes on a soulful chant
I stand before the picture of my dream
Watching its shadow meet the face of the sun
With sparkles and glitters in streams
Words of old have my dream reborn
