Ken Eaton-Dykes Poet Rhyme

A Seasonal Story

Up sprang a gust of playful wind
scattering cherry blossom in this Maytime spring
swirling about legs, old and rickety
leaving a scene of enchanting serendipity
'twas a canines randomly sprinkled stools
transformed into petal encrusted jewels
euphemized on this fine day
which nature wind and circumstance favour
a setting made possible by a mongrels behaviour
an accidental work of art
forged by the elements taking part
this vision of wonder, the soul to delight
blossom covered,,,,,,,lumps of shite.

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Ngoc Nguyen July 22, 2012 at 2:26 AM A very nice poem, but the rhyme seems to distract from my complete ability to enjoy it. Your poem might work better for you unrhymed.--Ngoc
