Matthew Anish Poet Free verse

Afternoon Vision

The shadows of night 
         are dispersed by 
a bright sun 
Morning passes and
    weary souls face a hot 
             afternoon
One man sees something 
          in the air
A UFO?
A Delusion?
  No, it is an afternoon vision
Clouds pass by in the sky 
The searcher is sure of 
  the revelation he has had
An epiphany - a dream revealed
  In the distance 
       children play and lovers embrace 
It all begins to make sense
Answers are available! 
One must have the strength to seek them 
           Minds can be reached
           By the unknown
           By the spiritual 
           By the visions which 
           we are granted
In the exact time when they are needed most!

Andrea Dietrich August 9, 2011 at 11:57 PM LIke an epiphany!! Nice. About that than Bauk style poetry. It is very strange but a new contest going on. YOu can only have three 4-syllable lines, but the difficult part is the rhyme pattern. Last word of line 4 must rhyme with third word of line 2 must rhyme with 2nd word of last line. I took forever just to do that simple burger poem!!
