Adventurer
The elixir of doubt some say
Lost within the pages of a younger day
He wandered the spaces of my lost dreams
Searching here and there for what might be
Young man bespeak
Fortune amiss
Beauty unfolds
For one muddy kiss
A whip for a phrase
A harp for a weapon
A dame for a jewel
Leads to one last question
Poverty stricken
Measures the date
Oh what a man we all appreciate
Hero's lost fortune
A sequel it seems
Yet De plane of forgiveness
Is a tale yet to told...
