“Travel the world to the ancient past, to meet up with some interesting characters” Gun Roswell
The Charioteer of Delphi
The boy with a chariot
With a look so serious
Horses as beasts of burden
He may be a rich man’s servant
But driving with fervency
Loving his chariot passionately
“So many faces, even ancient ones” Gun Roswell
Faces
Faces Forward and Sideways
Faces off the wall;
Fast forward, backward,
Even, to the side
Expressions may vary,
From grouchy, to content
And even
To a widest of smiles
The ancient figures
On the relief of yesteryear
Quite approachable
In the now and here
Take a leap back to history
And you may end up
With quite a unique story!
“So many faces, even ancient ones” Gun Roswell
Faces
Boy Face
A face from the past, made to last
In bronze it was carved, by an artist starved
A boys image, preserved through the lineage
Displayed as a portrait from ancient times
For the onlooker, a jolt of historic vibes
A charioteer, who never had any fear
Always delivering, far, beyond and even near
In his own time, perhaps an unknown figure
Now, in the present times, celebrated with vigor
Thus owning his place in continued history
