Poetic Verses
Victorian Lace
My mind lives in another time
of flowery speech, meter and rhyme
where eloquence and all that's such
of grief and sighs and love and touch
are parts of life and mostly soul
to bare the heart's desire whole
that from my small idyllic world
my heart like flags become unfurled
to empty thought in word profound
without shy self to utter sound
yet say of all that need express
forgoing logic and success
that in today's straight forward pace
my mind dwells in Victorian lace
