Flowering in Words

poetry is nature
dancing with mind

a verse would sprint out like
the most colourful bird
completely unexpected

we cannot but oblige
with another verse getting
into ourselves for a
riveting repartee to complete
the challenge thrown at us

out of our faintest expectation
nature might throw another verse

like a flower, the poem blooms

this goes on and on until nature
derives the stamp of a mind
working towards its plan

a poem is nature flowering in words

Goldy Locks (1/22/2007 11:03:00 AM) she doesnt pretend she tells them all to shove it and suck ass because her only motive is to be genuine.
