Doldrums
On the calm waters
the majestic vessel sits
in expectation.
Captain and crew all waiting
for signs of a Summer breeze.

while still inexperienced,
seeking affection.
Preying on naivety
soon their lust brought her ruin.

It was not pure chance
that drove Kingdoms to unite
but faith in Alfred.

Your heart torn by emotion
trying to ignore
the bowls thrust out forlornly
expecting to get nothing

Upon a branch a squirrel sat,
when far below he spied a cat
aha he said you can’t catch me
i know you cannot fly you see
but the foolish squirrel didn’t know
while teasing pussy far below,
an owl was hovering overhead,
heard the taunting words he said.
Thinking here’s a tasty snack
he swooped and gripped the squirrel’s back
with beating wings and talons full
that’s the last we’ll see of poor squirrel,

The mind of a child
will know no concept of safe
