The Spark

A Poem by amarlaksh
"

its a poem written in victorian english

"
Untreasur’d, of thy glory O’ state my!
Burghers stand thy wrath
Ragged shine, now thy
Erring we, lack troth.

Barred of verity, our quintessence
World-lings see thy taxing
Sauce us, of thy essence
Cast the flouted relaxing.

Whilst thee in dust’s beak,
Fond coz stay bloody
Of parts come a-peak
Rise bonny I prithee!

An if thee pity,
Shall then change
Hatred of civility
Motley by witty.

So to us ‘scape,
Turn to mend our shades fake.
Entame us or castaway.
Spark hither, spark thither, O’ spark stay!

Amar, you must have put a lot of time into this one and so I can appreciate the effort involved. Victorian writing was, and still is very popular because it is so rich in metaphor. The metaphors of this style are related to the time they were written in, unless you can tap into timelessness as Shakespeare did! A daunting task you have taken on, I wish you luck!

It is very well written except for some areas where your want to carry on a rhyming scheme has marred it very lightly. Excellent write however!
