Don't tell me there isn't a Fountain of Youth,
Don't be so callous, uncouth!
Don't wrangle or dangle a big yellow carrot
I won't fall for the tale of un-truth!
I know for a fact the Fountain exists
I was wrapped up inside its contents.
It roared through the house like tornado's a' twist
Upending all with its grit!
A twirl in a storm, a whirl with its charm
Consumed this lady of will
Extracting, exuding and eating away
I'm telling you, it won't stand still!
The cabinets went boom, the fridge all ajar
From the Fountain in search of its prey
A bottomless pit, two feet in a flit
And toys in random display!
The dog went berserk and growled at the moon
As the Fountain spewed all over the room.
The TV blared, the computer went nuts
And I simply stared àit spelled doom.
Oh yes, my friend, I'm telling the truth
There is a Fountain of Youth
I may not be able to drink a liquid of gold
But the Fountain is certainly bold.
It yells and it screams and laughs out loud
And it dances in rhythms of sound
It sings and it plays with the joys of day
And I'm telling you, it came my way.
The Fountain of Youth really exists
It's not just a myth or a lie
It lives by the power of Youth, don't you know
I've put it in bold it's à GRANDKIDS!!!
"Fountain of Youth" is a wit-wise composition with the aroma of love and blissful living.
I have enjoyed the reading of this poetic beauty.
I salute You, Sublime Poet.
