Her Pen is a cruel weapon.

Posted by Country Boy on May 25, 2013 at 16:38 0 Comments

She is alone
With her Books,
In an oven
Tomes she cooks,
Cloven coven...
Her good looks,
Beyond lovin'
Library nooks,
Arcane maven
Dead Poets' haven,
Endless diary
Kabbala fiery!
No prince harming
In her farming,
Fairy tales she writes
Ev'ry Blade delights.

Notes: the acronym SWITCHBLADE KNIFE is spelled from the first letter of each line.

The black crows are gathering overhead,The roses bloom in seasons all their own,The green hills I once loved, seem distant and deadThis garden will soon be overgrown.My child was taken by God’s hand,And I am left to try and understand.Where is my…Continue
