Paloma P Poet Light Verse

Bittersweet Rhymes

There's a constant humming of the heart

in rhythm's feigned semblances,

everything is just sampled stories self pre-awakening

we are merely a perception of who we think we are,

had a vivid dream I'd written the perfect analogy

ended 'pon bittersweet rhymes calling out destined poetry

Daniel Turner November 2, 2016 at 10:11 AM "merely a perception..." So true, Paloma. We often kid ourselves to stroke our vanity.

Sara Kendrick November 1, 2016 at 4:42 PM Yes, sometimes mine end up bittersweet instead of pure milk chocolate but then someone will like them and I am thinking well there was a reason for me writing that one..Sara..My catcha letters were xxx..LOL Paloma P November 1, 2016 at 6:18 PM Ha captcha is silly sometimes, as is poetry.

Chris Green November 1, 2016 at 3:56 PM Your poetry is so off the charts good. I find I end up reading your work several times over and always am amazed each time. I had a vivid dream I could write like you, sadly is was just a dream. :) This was beautiful Paloma.
