When Poet's

When Poet's

The days when Poet's ruled the World,
the days when Men's souls,
like free flying flags: were unfurled.

The ways when Poet's truths were Word,
the ways when Men's minds,
like brawny bounding stags: were stirred.







The days when Poets words were Gold,
the days when Men's hearts,
like royal roaring lions: were bold.

The ways when Poets words were Faithful,
the ways when Men's lives,
like lordly soaring eagles: were graceful.










The days when Poets souls were Strong,
the days when Men's lives,
like ancient aged sages: were long.


The ways when Poets tales were Epic,
the ways when Men's lives,
like benefic rhyming regents: were poetic.
