POETRY
~~~
The use of magical, mystical, musical
Words in the weave and weft of verbal tapestries,
Painting pictures in shades and tints,
Writing rhythms with thumps and bumps,
Thwacks and slaps,
With calming, soothing deviations, variations
Juxtaposed to compare and expose,
Reveal and disclose
Moods and sensations,
Perceptions, impressions…

Denise . . . I ADORE this poem! It THWACKS!
Haha, Nancy, isn’t that a lovely word…
I just recommended some South African blogs to a FB friend and then realized you weren’t on my blog roll yet. Oops.
Sorted now.
That’s very kind of you, Nancy.
This poem sings! Thank you, Dee!
Pleasure Paula, and thank YOU!
Where did you get all those words from Denise.
Great fun, hugely entertaining. Lovely cross rhythms.
Thank you.
John
This poem began seriously, then graduated to ‘tongue-in-cheek’ musical rhythms, and back to seriousness, John. It just happened that way.
this has a very nice rhythm to verbal tapestries is a great descriptor…yes i think you have captured poetry…smiles.
Thanks Brian… it’s hard to put something in a box.
You have summarized the art of poetry very artfully – I thought the weave and weft of verbal tapestries brilliant.
Aah, thank you Ruth.

Mish mash is right, Gabe, I enjoyed letting this one come out! Thanks so much.
to me this looks like contemporary dance…all the ups and downs are unexpected, yet a soothing theme, a strange harmony that in the end entertains…great work! (:
