Notes About The Poem

This is also an example of a reverse poem.

A reverse poem is a poem that can be read forwards (top to bottom) and have one meaning but can also be read backwards (bottom to top). It does not have to rhyme and does not have to have an opposite meaning when read from bottom to top. It DOES need to make sense when reading it backwards, however.

Inner Peace

Inner peace
transporting me—
crashing, salty, wet,
waves of the sea
feeling, hearing,
tasting, smelling
tides ebbing, flowing
in concert with the moon
Drawn to the edge of the water

Drawn to the edge of the water
in concert with the moon
tides ebbing, flowing
tasting, smelling,
feeling, hearing, 
waves of the sea
crashing, salty, wet
transporting me—
Inner peace
