TRIP TO WINDSOR CASTLE POEM 26

Intrepid is the soul that seeks its mystery. We know of ourselves only as much as we give of ourselves - so the artist seeks to know himself and others through his art. It is not treacherous, as much as exposed, people say and so it is brave to honestly follow your heart.

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” Winston Churchill

Approach

As you lean towards me,

Your voice lilts like a poem,

Sensuous in the mouth,

And chaste in the heart.

Purity of water is not

Like purity of the soul,

For it contains elements

And minerals within.

I know our love is true,

With sober soul we entered

Our pact and it shall

Stay knit not unravelled.

It is based on fealty,

And great naturally from circumstance manufacture,

And as real as a flint or how,

Without its second part.

So this is how it is my heart.

“Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.” John Wayne
