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?!
No Steven, I wasn't born until 19 ..
...03?! Cheeky says Fido!
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
You saucy wench!
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?
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 ..
