IF I WAS A POEM

If I was a poem
Would you red read me
Would I be brown formed
in your mind of mahogany
Would I be about peace

Would you read me often
Your voice free green softened
Or cold as old coffin
Like ice black lung coughing
Words within breast milk tossing

Would you feed me dreams
Calm cranberry blue black screams
That I may achieve esteem
Lavender life story fuchsia fantasy

Gershon Wolf Date: 4/21/2025 7:08:00 PM If I were a poem, and you were a carpenter-lady, would you silver-hammer me into the nearest oak railing?... Colorful and creative write, methinks. Smiles, Gershon Login to Reply Karen Jones Date: 4/21/2025 8:32:00 PM lol you are so funny Gershon! Thanks

Andrea Dietrich Date: 4/19/2025 8:09:00 PM So colorful. That was a great idea to use the many colors to describe yourself as poetry Login to Reply Karen Jones Date: 4/19/2025 8:27:00 PM Thanks! I really drew a blank as to how to approach this contests rules. I felt like I didn’t do enough!
