A poem about poetry – from writing workshop 29/4/12
What is a poem?
A teenage girl’s tears
A picture built of nothing
To survive for years.
A whisper of humanness
The birth of a song
The only thing left
When a loved one is gone.
A contrast of texture
To feel on the tongue
A deepest breath
In deepest lung
A child’s sleeping face
A lover’s embrace
A friend beside me.
A cloak to hide me.
