Poetry is the delicate sunset,

Burrowing into the deep, dark sea,

Poetry is the sound of birds chirping,

Capturing each crisp, morning dew drop,

 

Poetry is the sweet nectar of maple,

Extracting on every chilly fall afternoon,

Poetry is the aroma of flowers,

Nestling up in patches to hold a lover tight,

 

Poetry is the straight hair tangled,

Smoothing by fingers of one deep in thought,

Poetry is the anxiety of not,

Knowing the next obsticle to jump next,

 

Poetry is the warm chill of thrill,

Beaming through your body,

Fraught with hope.
