Poetry, is not just
The rhyming of some words
It's an expression of a feeling
Which a heart shepherds
...
A message of love, peace and joy
Was gifted to us, by the birth of a boy
Bequeathed as well, for all to enjoy
...
Happiness, is like a flower blooming
Its petals hid, its beauty looming
Then it unfolds, in all its splendor
To makes us feel, so warm and tender
...
The echolalia condition
Is a case, of repetition
When, what you say, they must repeat
...
Have you ever read a poem
Which so brilliantly reads
It brings joy to your heart
Or such sorrow, it bleeds
...
If your secrets, you must tell
It will not, bode you well
If what you confess
...
I don't know where I'm going
Forgotten where I've been
I don't know what I'm doing
Can't remember, what I've seen
...
WISDOM & BIRTH
What we posses, at our death
In both, knowledge and worth
May have been better used
...
Now that Easter
Is in the offing
I'll be searching for
What that bunny's dropping
...
It's not easy, being poetic
Some people think it pathetic
To put your thoughts in a rhyme
...
I was contemplating life
When it occurred to me
That nothing in our lives
Means as much, as we
...
If you're hoping,
that your dreams come true
You're dreaming about,
what happens to you
...
Poetry
Poetry, is not just
The rhyming of some words
It's an expression of a feeling
Which a heart shepherds
A rhapsody of heart and thought
Immersed in joyful bliss
Or dashed upon those rocks
Of agony's abyss
Pictures made of words
Painted by a quill
Words that dance and twirl
At the penman's will
The fusion of a thought
With the gift of soul
Emotions that are freed
Without any control
The sorrow of a heart ache
Set in rhythmic prose
The rhythm of true love
Which, two hearts compose
Visions sketched in words
For everyone to see
Desires and their dreams
In hopes that they will be
The harmony of lyrics
A mind and heart have spawned
Set in melodies of verse
To which, we all respond
