The Millers Daughter

its not all about bread or buns in the oven my little flour...

The Millers Daughter

 

Behave not like

Some  

Miller’s daughter

Filled

With flour,

False hope

And false laughter

Crusty

And bread oven

Scented

Tasty though

Despite those

Storm clouds

Brewing

Just around

The corner

Ah’ yes, I see a

Landscape  

In the making

Turn and tilt

Like

Don Quixote

Lift those skirts

And let’s get dirty

But no, 

The lady say’s  

She just

Bakes bread

And she burns 

Candles  

Tis what all good millers

Daughters do these days

What a let down after those storm clouds sir...just a little puff of wind that blew all the hopes away and left us with a whiff of baked bread. WIth some ladies, all the brewing, turning, tilting and lifting just leads to only baked bread. I call it teasing in my parlance.

This made for an absolutely great read. Spot on and so funny too!

I know a lot of those "I'm not that kinda girl" kinda girls Neville.
I do remember those other kinda girls, with the carry on matron smiles and glints in their eyes from my youth though. Ah, youth... Where the hell did you go? 😀

Hey... how did I miss this.. my only excuse is that I have been somewhat preoccupied for the last two weeks, I guess. Cheers Lorry 😀

Na, I just sneaked in at night and stuck it on like wallpaper. Didn't even trip the "you have a new review" e mail.

[Neville]

Moving, intriguing. Rises to a naughty crescendo and suddenly releases the tension leaving rustic innocence exposed. That's what miller's daughters do!
