How Very Agincourt

Neville

How Very Agincourt

 

No sooner had she bowed and knelt there

before him like that ..

 

He smiled to himself and he thought

how very Agincourt ..

 

Since she has more than just the one string

to her bow, she is bound to go far ..

    Oohh, was you there with Goldfinch and I in 1415, and Hastings in 1066?!

        Loving the double usage of the word Bow here Nev. Inspired another angle for a story in my norty mind however - - - The decision to bow and kneel, Agincourt style, shows a modern-day lady to be often wily - - - best to steer clear of manipulation methinks my dear Sire - - -for guile maketh peeps. not very nice - -- of course there are other reasons for kneeling before lusty males or maybe that's going too far !! ............x

            Sorry for the delay in my responding dear lady Fay .. I've only just got my breath back .. I am also highly delighted that you read this little scribble the way in which I intended it to be .. x

            I did not laugh... but the smile lasted a while! I bow to your talent! Or kneel?

            • Neville



              that'll do nicely .. very nicely indeed .. & I most humbly thank thee 🙂

              The imagination flares with that bow Neville.

                Flare enough my little Golden Wonder .. I guess if it got any hotter, I would end up a bag of bones & you a bag of crisps (that's potato chips) for some o you overseas bods 🙂

                ha!
                what a subtle flex of your poetic genius
                intertwining, the analogy of a key battle
                incorporating the decisive nature of the bow
                and then tipping it all on its head
                as commentary
                on the foolish ego of those
                too easily convinced
                higher vantages
                mean winning positions, in life...
                (yeah, this is why I remain
                a proud fan, dear cherished Poet)
                I read and learn, Hyung

                  You are in true characteristic fashion, too kind my friend .. but I am delighted you see it my way ..
