Clad In Imagery

Suited in great attire With superb shape and perfect form When you see through Naked emotion hidden in rhythm It stirs the beating heart. Dressed in sophisticated words Sharp and bright Clad in imagery and intelligent thoughts Rhyming with good reasoning Fitting tone and matching style. When you begin to play with thoughts Embedded in expensive fashion There is a price to pay Outfitted with costly devotion Bringing tears to the eyes And questions to the seeing mind. As you peel away layers of metaphor They come deep down to A single body of thought And a vivid image emerges That is expressive and unique.
