Poetry Today Recited
Whence Wordsworth
danced with daffodils
the world of poetry
moved on with
symbols of the inner man
new poems soon began
verse was freed
to explore
imagery
and the like
then
hand in hand
together were
soon to reach
Eliot's waste land
So empty now of
flowers to
while away
the
hours
because
Without a voice it cannot sing
No echos in the heart will ring
Come read,contemplate,give it time
Euphony ,floats on tides of rhyme;
Set free from custom's tyranny
Alternatives in poetry,
Lineation and enjambment
become the poets's intrument.
Beware ,sans pace in patterned verse
Vers Libre may scans as prose, or worse
And stays a writer's curse
Listen to me read this poem on youtube under the name ichthyschiro
