(a sight for sore eyes)
spectacles glasses blinkers and goggles
lorgnettes and musty net curtains
glistening pince-nez good for a gossip
monocles for posers full of surprises
Nearly Everyone knows that Quizzing specs are sometimes sly

The Collectors' Spectacles
Count Muldivo has always preferred riveting spectacles
to the drab and dribbling nondescript
more to the point do glasses remember
the Wonders and Curios they have beheld
mumbling past their vigilant frames two by two achoo
rub your glasses on a Tuesday with a wicked wink twinkle
and memories will flick flicker before the blink of an eye
Editors Note : The Collectors’ Spectacles is from
Paul Biddles’ series in progress - The Cabinet of Curiosities
