A Well Disposed Squire Poem by nimal dunuhinga

A Well Disposed Squire

Rating: 5.0


Among the amber dusky smoke in a twilight
This rare thoughtful gentleman still survives as a bachelor
Who shares with the jobless his bare lands in complaisant.
He provides the necessary for the ploughmen to turn the unkempt earth
and bring harvest in time.
The poultry is look after by country lass
And I am sure one day a wetted country hen would pick the Headmaster's fragment heart secretly.
Please do not let vamoose the handsome Sun in the romantic sky.

* A humble dedication to my poet friend George.Murdock who visited into our gloomy nest generously.We lit a bright & fragrant candle on the Christmas day and conveyed our sincere gratitude for his generosity.
Thanking you again for your kind attention!

'And I am sure one day a wetted country hen would pick the Headmaster's fragment heart secretly. Please do not let vamoose the handsome Sun in the romantic sky.' No one but you, Nimal, could have penned these fascinating lines of greeting to your friend. You take the English language and imbibe it with a flavor that is all your own as well as being intensely poetic. I never cease to be stunned by your imagery and your inventiveness. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
