A style inspired by the original wordsmith himself, Shakespeare. Hope you enjoy it!
Of muted love and tepid gaze,
does that of thine own efforts make.
But with th'aid of a touch divine,
Come into tune for the first time
You will. Be not afraid of suchlike things,
for time makes trees of mere seedlings
But beware of those your father warned,
For none pains more than an ignorèd word.
After one semester of studying Shakespeare's Othello in depth I can accurately say that I really like Shakespeare's work (I've read other works of his as well throughout high school). This piece came about as a result of getting so into it that I began thinking in verse. **my inner geek is showing** (but I don't mind lol) Well, thanks for opening the book and reading it thus far :) I appreciate it.
