Modern Minstrel

Contributed by MisfitMe on Sunday, 5th November 2006 @ 07:04:38 PM in AEST
Topic: dedicatedpoems

The modern minstrel is a man~

whose oral tradition survives his time

So as tomorrow might his day understand~

with poetic hands he cradles life in rhyme

In his fashion, todays troubadour~

is the rhythm in which history's kept

As it is his song that will become lore~

once his day into yester is swept

Beyond living memory his raps realized~

in vivid colors never to fade

And, thus is his essence immortalized~

to continue receipt of due accolade

Though he be not known to me in face~

I know his lack to be our storys peril

For ours is an age in need of such grace~

as gifts he who is artist, he who is Darrel

Ah we should all be so celebrated...but alas so many go unsung or commentless...

You give rise to the opposite here:

"...Beyond living memory his raps realized~

in vivid colors never to fade

And, thus is his essence immortalized~

to continue receipt of due accolade..."

I like how you take your feelings and bring them into life as verse.
You have beautiful music coming from your minstrel soul may you ever receive immortal accolades yourself.
