Dateless

Dates mean nothing. The poems are just ordered as I please. I believe I still have a mostly accurate account of dates elsewhere.

"White garden"

White garden

A wealth of white is witnessed in the garden on the end

The tulips and the daisies and the daffodils attend

A while was washed upon the vine wisteria would lend

Oh, the hopes and pending doom I never could defend

With the wall and trellis top the white and I did blend

No wasted words or whispered will while weather's on the mend

But, how to woo beyond this point, what withered way will wend

I see a gap between the hedges leading to an end

The moat has now seceded, there's no way in which to tend

The words are fading on the vine, seems nothing's left to send

A poet's word, a wizard's wound, the wanton dragons rend

The wealth of wooing, now it seems, unwillingly must pend


Or, is the white garden just wintery spray

Of blizzards that paste the white garden per se

Supreme celebration of warmth and blue skies

Takes two to explore with their hearts and their eyes

Not just any two can you mix to compose

Supernovas and fireworks produce cosmic rose

The nature and magic of potent emotions

Of passion and romance and constant explosions

Can only be cast by the spell of the wizards

Overcoming the white of the tulips and blizzards
