Defining Poetry
Words trapped within the mind,
sounds traveling through time,
placed upon parchment with rhyme,
entering each soul sublime.
None perfect until it hits the ear,
then harmony becomes near,
relaxing thought’s without fear,
putting love into one who is dear.
Deep and light with delight
turning on your inter light
capturing other souls out of sight
tantalizing the mind at night
Becoming one of two with one word
encapsulating what was heard,
each reading as a puzzling crossword
blending together word by word.
