CRUMB, ICEBERG AND GLIMMER
A few things to nourish us
in this request in verse
Give us a crumb from that loaf
A humble comfort blanket
Grant us a splinter of frost above
Findings spawn from tip of iceberg
Save some glow off the glimmer
Hope preserved and mirrored
Those who give shan't be in want Those who receive in penury shan't If they wisely give and they wisely spend There'll be none to grieve But much to append 8>)
ANTIQUE STREET
Faded bronze picture pretty where cracks add curiosity mounting age make things vintage authentic guarantee's pledge yesterday's streets I tarry Green moss carpets alley 8>)
A VERSE OF THANKS
I thank thee for thy patronage rhyme like wine improves with age though I shan't be a hermit sage I'm glad thou had found this page 8>)
FOR VERSES' SAKE
There's nothing here at stake But the reasons we state come play for verses' sake lines of prosaic prose break 8>)
HOPE IN THE DARKEST HOUR
The pall of the darkest hour
Is lifted by Faith's power
Let burn your resolve's ardour
There's relief in Hope's harbour!
