The Downs by Stephneche(op): 8:41am On Aug 24, 2019
MY POETIC MODE(THE DOWNS)

In your fore walls I learnt etiquette
In your room I gained knowledge
Where I drank deep from the muse
I can't pay off the deeds

You kindled in me the fire of overall achievement
Took me close to the world
In contact with people with timbers and calibres
To the spring of life where water of wisdom flows

Dreams and ambition are twins
Dream activates love ambition activates zeal
Without them you are nothing
Let me in your dream and be part of your ambition

When all leaves off the bough
And nuts and apples are gathered in
Cornstalks waiting for the hearth
And pumpkins safe in the barn and brim
Let me in your future and time to come

The time we spent together
The memories of the good days
Feelings and memories might come and go
But you are always in my heart
Let me in your memories and your time

Love grows from love root to leaf
The tap through it liveth
It spreads infectious bliss
Among unequal people
Let my love up to your leaf through the root
