An opening to storytelling

An opening to storytelling

A Poem by Stu. T.H.

I bet you've heard this before,
Rhymic tales with hidden lores,
Those befitting to be told behind closed doors,
To retell the stories of heroes of yore;
We tell tales of heroes who overcame challenges,
Facing off horrors and had their names brandished,
But foremost, we admire their eloquent characters,
Of resisting fate despite having been beaten so battered;
We admire heroes for not only their physiques, that is old,
But rather the tales they have woven, for that we are sold,
Their tales are eternally engraved, but few modernists know,
So let tonight, again, we let their tales be told.

It is in the retelling, the passing on of the baton, that we continue to live on. Thanks for sharing!
