A Poem Is A Novel

Rating: 4.0


A poem is
A novel
Concise,
Enveloped
In a few
Tightly pressed
Lines.

To read it
You shouldn't
Trudge
For days, weeks, months,
And, sometimes, years
Through yellowing pages.

You read it
In an instant,
And then
It unfolds
In your mind
For days, weeks, months,
And, sometimes, years,
Like a bud of a lotus flower.
