Poetry Reflected

Poetry does not have to rhyme

In fact mine doesn't most of the time

It's just some words that come out

Hope you don't scream and shout

It's not important if you agree or not

I'm not offended if you don't give attention

It's good for the soul to scrawl my thoughts

Puts life into perspective, takes care of it all

A smile a giggle, all the same to me

Passes some minutes, tells you about me

So what's the point of this spewing of mine

Not so much really, could you scribe such lines?

Enjoy the words, phrases, pace and inflection

Take part in my introspective, poetry-reflection

I'm not singing about Roses or romance

I don't want to break hearts or leap into dance

I want to share that prose is not dead yet

So long as there is passion and ideas in my head

I'm painting a picture just using words and letters

It's abstract and impressionist, but its not a best seller

It's simple, to the point, concise in it's mission

So please forgive me if you think there's an omission

It should stand by itself, no need to contribute more

Not very political, or controversial, that's for sure

Just harmless fun, maybe even an irritation

Bathe in my words, take some inspiration

Try to write something down, not try to make sense

Show it too friends, they won't take offence

Construct a sentence, or two or four, then hit return

Soon you'll be flying to the end of the verse

Take random thoughts and ideas, mash them all together

The recipe for success is only to give it your best

Then you will see how much it fun can be

to share this moment and set yourself free

I could go on forever, now that I have started

but the chances are you will all have departed

Thanks for listening to my incessant ramblings

It's given me pleasure to make these happenings...

Time someone else, took over this mission

Enjoy your day and thank you for listening!
