Poetry Or Prose

Caught between poetry and prose Like two lovers sometimes I cannot decide between Prose says to me, lets build something long and lasting Yet poetry takes me by my hand and whispers, ‘come with me’ We can loose ourselves for awhile The moon will help us carry our smiles The sun will walk along with us down mountain paths or flow along riversides I am allowed to paint a rainbow in my sky Even if darkness lies ahead and build a bridge to help me reach the other side. In magic tones and loves shade colours that will never fade. My eyes grow moist, my heart in tune She lifts my mood as I see all those beloved faces cross my path in bloom. 7.4.2021 Sponsor: Brian Strand
