~ Princess Bride ~

Your poet tried

Dear princess bride

To gallant ride

Where truths abide

Yet...

My foot did slip

My soul did slide

Forsooth, for shame

For naked pride;

 

Your bard did fail

Dear nightingale

While villains rail

While hordes assail

And...

Our castles fall

While brigands scale

Once mighty heights

Of fabled tale.

--Misery

Reviews

[Bacchus]

definitely wants me to read you more for sure...
I've got a Princess Bride reference in my Risen in Your Speech piece...
i really enjoyed the flow, the mystery and hints of what you are getting at here
just enough to relate to ourselves... i'll be by again

[Misery]

Your kind words bring a blush to my cheek and a smile to my spirit, dear Bacchus.
You do honor me far beyond the worth of my frail words, but I am grateful for your comments.

Tumbling thoughts, so poetic!

[Misery]

Thank you. Much pain in the poetic tumble of thoughts...sometimes.

[Lyn Anderson]

I do find this piece so very sad.

[Misery]

Hello dear Poet.
Yes, sorrow did inspire this solemn confession.

[Papaya]

I really enjoyed this one.
Super flow

[Misery]

Thank you, dear poet.
It was a painful bit of inspiration; but pain is part of the process, yes?

[Papaya]

Yes. Sadly, it is.
