Kinder-Writing

i. I've learnt to play with words Like a kid in kindergarten Gathering thorny roses from the garden. With words, now I play. ii. Despite the spikes Pricking and tick-ly Still, I pick words as toys Making the alphabets my buddy. iii. I don't joke around Joke. Being juxtaposed Don't necessarily mean our thoughts don't oppose. Nevertheless, figures of speech I literally kissed. iv. I'm learning to understand Every actions in verbs Why adjective steals informations attributed to nouns Why exclamations don't play, with every vocal sounds. v. Now, with my eyes I perceive The scent of everything around And when my mind is alarmed I seek refuge; swimming with the tides of letters.
