The Mallet

The mallet
Ancient tool
Held by many hands
Down through the ages
Hands of skill and experience
Worn and hardened
By labour and care
Now
Resigned to
Tent pegs and vampires

In response to the daily prompt Mallet

I have to say – what a rubbish word today!

    An ancient tool … yes! Made me think of the pyramids! Enjoyed your poem! 🙂 Didn’t mind the prompt word too much. It was okay.
