Museling

Hither knave, come nigh to me,
wrest thine thoughts 'til hearts agree;
heed the lesson pride won't teach,
practise what thou fiercely preach.


Turnest thou thine fertile tome:
another leaf, another poem;
steady on 'til light of day,
only purest thoughts will stay.

Thanks.

Thanks for those kind words. Although it wasn’t written in the former tongue in all strictness of the word or syntax had provided a feel that somehow bridged both realities. I am pleased that it has stirred you enough to interact with its ‘creator.’ And again, I thank you, kind sir.

Ah, tis archaic

but methinks, so be I and mine friend Ian. Forsooth, tis seeming that we both carest for thine words! Respectfully, Rett: "Next time you think you're perfect, walk on water." "A Democracy can withstand anything but Democrats." Robert A. Heinlein
