If There Were No Poetry

If there were no poetry
A kiss would be just a kiss without
My lovely blossoms blooming on 
Cue  to reminsce.  A thought  would 
Have no sound.
Without a convincing poetic rhyme.
And  a rhyme would be only a rhyme
Without its  SHINE..
What a misery that would be
I'd  fight against the grain
I'd go down swinging,  
My fists CLENCHED against the pain. 
CLOUDS withoutthe SUN, THEN THE
RAIN.
NO  true  RAINBOW SONGS instead 
The  SHAME.
