Observations 3

That old church Miraculous Novenas prayed; Urban facelift upgrades ~~~~~~~~~ Once upon a rhyme Edgy words conspired; Awkward exfoliation ~~~~~~~~~ Waiting for the muse Words falter and flop; No poem today ~~~~~~~~~ Journey Journal gripes So much to write; Self-healing ventures ~~~~~~~~~ Listen to my story As I recite in words; Snapshot in verse ~~~~~~~~~ Just for a while Smile condescending; Be serious later ~~~~~~~~~ Seize the tally Count how many; Profit pays plenty ~~~~~~~~~ Passion ignites Purpose prevails; Persistence pays ~~~~~~~~~ Write a good write Let words address; Debut word song ~~~~~~~~~ Lyrics in plain view Comments in e-ink; Glare and glaze ~~~~~~~~~ Secret messages Unwritten motifs; Not for consumption ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 08 November 2014 Singapore
