A poem, to me: <br />A statement, speech, a view. <br />Onomatopoeic metaphor <br />About me and you. <br />Plotted and planned, <br />Or just a thing I do. <br />From instress to inscape, <br />Hopkins-like, <br />So very, very true. <br />A riotous myriad of colours, <br />Scented roses, <br />Touches new. <br />In verses and stanzas, <br />Pocket pictures you see; <br />Iambic rhythms and pulses, <br />Traditional verses, <br />Or free. <br />Time for tea. <br /> <br />PB Or Skryboss (C) Yorkshire Dales Saturday 19th September 2009 at 11.30.<br /><br />Paul Butters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poem-5/
