the10 of 12 Wordle words:
changed, love, names, happy, give
picture, lines, story, curtain, alley
The world whirled slowly by
Changed into medley of activities
Some dream of love and names to come by
And many others happy with mediocrity
Many planned to give and procure
Executed the picture with perfection
But some just failed to endure
Waited unashamedly in lines for alms
Narrated of stories to what transpired
Drew the curtain across with no bother
Not inclined to reveal of whims desired
Young couples aligned their own rudder
In a world of their own venture
Up steps in an alley pitching a wish
Time stood still pristine in nature
Have we elders not savoured such bliss?

Hank, your clever write seems like your target may have been a bus depot. They can be nasty and nice, depends on where you are and where the others are. It's been a long time since I've waited for my bus connection.
ReplyDeleteNow, "Some dream of love and names to come by and many others happy with . . . ", causes me today, do the name part while you can. Between aging and the COVID I have lost my memory of names almost altogether. Mrs. Jim some, but events more. It is the pits. We do have an appointment, took three months, for this month to see a Neurologist.

Well said.
ReplyDeleteHank, I am struggling to make sense right now, but wanted you to know I visited my friend… 🙂
