Poetry Is Like Puzzles

Poetry is like puzzles or paint coming together a bit at a time; The design bold or sometimes faint; Often requiring self restraint it’s such a tall mountain to climb; Poetry is like puzzles or paint; Never interested in playing it straight; From the softest pink to neon lime the design bold or sometimes faint; Prose like a picture must be traced, blended with soul, rhythm, and rhyme; Poetry is like puzzles or paint; With this box of crayons you translate your demons into something sublime; The design bold or sometimes faint; Imagination the fundamental trait, like the base coat it will prime; Poetry is like puzzles or paint, the design bold or sometimes faint.
