Poetry Happens
Time to strip bare
Minimalist poetry.
I WANT to FEEL my HEART beaTING
in RHYTHmic METered MEAsures.
Each syllable of your strophe,
spoken,
A caress of my tongue.
The play of alliteration through
Lurid, luscious lips;
Liquid, languid language.
Don't deny your poetic devices,
The deception of symplicity,
Like virginal innocence, entices
Poems of perfect prosody.
Ignoring the structures of long ago
Can labour the meaning of words, you know?
So trust in the fun
My poetic one
And let style, rhyme and rhythm flow.
There's more to be said,
I could go on and on,
About the joy in turning
The perfect phrase.
Never forgetting that,
There's a certain satisfaction,
Describing, in magical metaphor,
That last instant before
Poetic birth.
thank you carrie, I enjoyed your poem <grin> it was fun ...
