My Own

i paint a perfect picture with a poem
to please the relish riddles of the mind
a thought or view of something deep inside

unsettled secrets disolve every word
displayed to dance on traveled eyes that read
with hand to pen i punctuate to please

the spices of the sound are syllables
i practice, preach, and put on mass display
to season food for thought on lines that sway

i paint a perfect picture with a poem
to please the relish riddles of the mind
a thought or view of something deep inside
