Dramatic Monologue Salad
Preparing vegetable or fruit salad midst poetic venture
my appetite craves for savory twist
along well-being stature of blissful serenity.
nourished with healthy writing glow...
Let's feast on the richness exuded by a dramatic monologue salad
with fresh raw experiences of human nature as main ingredients
chosen well midst best exposure toward life's realities
blended with whole heart's outpour along wisdom bits...
Mix those with slices of faith-journey phases
earlier immersed into chili-pepper spices
to bring trial and challenges' favored aroma
or have them all sweetened by love-honeyed glaze...
For sumptuous presentation against attacking boredom
hide hypocrisy's temptation over perfect meter or rhythm
through versatility offered by free verse style
flowing along truth and sincerity-bliss...
Another way is to serve such palatably inviting
while breaking monotony along delivery's confidence
by using rhyme that does ring with triumph chime
grateful to God*, expressing blest dramatic monologue zest.
*1Thessalonians 5:18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
