Virgil's Garden


 Virgil's Garden

Beyond the gate lies
Virgil's Garden.
There Ladies slip into
Slippers when the
Bluebells chime.
Black-Eyed Susan dozes,
forgetting the Thyme.
Jack leaps from his Pulpit,
while the Dutchman
pulls on his breeches.
Sweet Joe Pye Weed smiles;
the Bitter-Root screeches.
Handsome Helenium
woos the Lady with the
Tresses.
Fairy Lilies dance wearing
white dresses.
Virgil slides along the
soil and loam;
upon his back he carries
his home.

Not the Only Game in Town

    Since Amazon's asshole intelligence is dumb enough to take on the real thing I've found lots of alternatives for self-publishing...
