I am an 18 year old male. I just finished high school and will start studying law at university next year. I am a passionate reader and writer. I was really drawn into the world of poetry by Stephen Fry's book, the Ode Less Travelled. Also everything else about Fry. Thank you for taking time to read my bio
Teacup on the tabletop
With blossoms rising 'till they drop.
The buds are fresh but soon to bloom,
They see the gardener's sickle loom.
The porcelain birds and blossoms bend,
Their feathers reach up to pretend
To be a part of foliage green
With hues as deep as seas Aegean.
While painted plaster outlasts all,
Irregardless Spring or Fall,
Ceramic birds sing with a sigh
That flesh or stone, all men must die.
