Poetry

Words

Words painted from memory,

brushed like oil;

upon canvas in great ceremony.

Vocabulary palette with adjective hues

and vibrant verbs;

draws thoughts from within, to use.

With a stroke and swipe peer upon

wondrous things;

the fields, the forests, the sea.

Subjects only limited by the mind;

beauty painted,

in words that rhyme and bind.

As thoughts stirred from memory,

colored brightly;

penned in cursive sensuality.

Words accentuate, flow, and blend,

in rainbow colors;

sentences punctuated to send.

Words chosen for a reason,

to convey,

thoughts from heart to pad.
