Poetry Slam

Poetry slam

The words, full of rhythm, 
The performance…. outstanding,
Charming the audience, holding them tight, 
Like a first-time mother with a new born child.
The arguments the agreements all flowing into one. 
Philosophical reasoning shared by the individual voice, 
As if a conversation by the many.
Poetry slam? 
Performance at its best, appealing, 
Fascinating to watch, amazing to hear,
Taking the mind away to another space another time,
I sit and I listen;
But I still wait…. for the rhyme

I have only attended one poetry slam it was at the school I worked at - its a form of poetry that is quite new so it was lovely to see the kids writing and enjoying performing in groups:-) (got to admit I am a rhyme fan too) hugs Jan xx
