The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."

As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

History

History, where dreamers go
in search of better things,
a place of happiness and woe,
of palaces and kings.

Hidden in the dark of time
we find the hopes and dreams,
of great and good, the hero fine,
and those too low to scheme.



Line count: 8
Rhymed abab
