That sounds like the first line of Shakespeare's "Richard III", "Now is the winter of our discontent..."

I need to know what kind of poem this is and where did it come from.


-"Look how high The bluebird flies" Yeah, I've heard that line before Tell me more Be brilliant Be resilient Like you always are Tell me more If you've got something to tell Well, lookit here Could something real Be sitting behind your eyes? More lies More nonsense Keeping up the pretense Of being someone Worthwhile Don't smile Its not funny You're not stunning anyone With that spurious smile Could you be honest Or are you too far gone With your verbose luggage And one foot out the door? Tell me more Of what you know Tell me more Of what you don't

Song Lyrics (a type of poem!)

The Spring of My Content by Flip Frisch:

It's the spring of my content - that's what I meant
And what a gift this hour is
I'd like to spend it all in one place, yes

Have my cake and eat it too, ice cream on the side
Oh sweet surprise, you feed my mind
But shall we have our dessert first? Yes

As I look at the stars at night
And dream of what is to be....
My heart begins to smile
For it's you I see
You're the one who makes me laugh
When things are looking bad
You're the one who makes me smile
When I am feeling sad
You're the only one for me
you brighten up my day
You're the sunshine of my life
you chase dark clouds away.
I think of you each day
my mind is set on you
You bring the best in me
with the sweet things you do.
Sweetheart, this love for you is true
And know forever I will Love You.
