Dusty Tomes

Dusty Tomes

Dusty tomes and dilapidated binds

Lost in reading as time unwinds

Poems from bard’s writ

Where reality must acquit.

Making way for kings and queens

Greek tales and flying machines

History and forgotten tomes

Adventures with Sherlock Holmes

Alchemy and demonology rite

Phasing of the moon at midnight

Superior minds a terrible waste

Without words embraced

Books and baubles kept

In a realm fantasy swept

Along the ides of March

Glorified on pages starch

It's rather sobering when people use your words against you.

By the way, how could you possibly know that I'mΒ a MASSIVE Sherlock Holmes fan?!?

It's beautiful. Thank you, Lisa. I am humbled beyond words. Which, as you can imagine, is a new experience for me!!

I love it.

your friend, fellow poet and (if Donegal & Minnesota were a little closer together) your husband's crazed rival,

I'm pretty sure the laugh at the end there indicates that the correct spelling of that word is: psychotically.

Hi Dear Lisa,

Yesterdays Bibles are today's forgotten treasures, crying between each page for the want of a friend. They sit in gloom's loneliness, gathering dust. Β Shakespeare replaced by J.K. Rawlings. Β Dante replaced by James Patterson. Β The Illiad replaced by Star Wars. Β Beware of the Ides of March, for that will be the date of "Fahrenheit 451".

Hugs, Peace and Love,

Larry xxx
