GloPoWriMo 2023, Day 11– So It Goes, So It Goes

236: Does not the worm erect a pillar in the mouldering churchyard?

192: Folly is the cloak of knavery.

222: Tell me what is a thought, & of what gardens do joys grow?

196: The Apple tree never asks the beech how he shall grow; not the lion,
the horse, how he shall take his prey.

90: In the southern clime, where the summer’s prime. Never fades away;
Lovely Lyca lay.

40: So if all do their duty, they need not fear harm.

Lines mined from six William Blake poems. This poem curated by Selma

    Really liked this line
    In the southern clime, where the summer’s prime. Never fades away;
    Lovely Lyca lay.
    And the one about trees and animals (though I think you mean ‘nor the lion’)

      Thanks for liking my contribution, dearest Dawn. Isn’t the line about Lovely Lyca Lay Lovely, I liked it too. All words borrowed as they appear in my book of William Blake poems. I cannot change his spelling. Thanks so much for reading and supporting my efforts, dear friend. I bless you. xoxo
