She's Some Kind of Poetry - -

She's reckless and cautious

     in the same breath,

sensibly abstruse and uninhibited

       elusively in your face,

introspective in her extroversion

  expressly shy when she wills to be,

    rapture in the mist

          an enigma unto man

              a force to be reckoned

         he couldn't possibly envisage,

don't try to comprehend the

   wind 'neath her wings, 

     she's poetry replete

           with esoteric allusions

So this is poetry's elusive alter-ego. No wonder I can't catch her. Lovely poem, Paloma. Written in your own imitable style. Much love to you, dear.

A shy rhapsody ~ rhapsodos? The enigma of facing Janus.

Sounds like a real "pussycat". I've got some catnip. Lol Now that's "special kitty!" I love it, Paloma!

Simmer down there, DT, lest I start to think you're infringing on my copyrighted innuendoes. You completely destroyed my ability to smoothly comment on this wonderful poem by beating me to the punch :p

While i struggle a bit with your style I still think you're an artist, but loved the imagery and structure of this one.

Hello Grant. I've been told that before, I'm not everyone's cup of tea. I appreciate your candor, thanks for your visit and lovely review.

She sounds like my kind of girl, is she single? :) Loved this one Paloma, you have given us a glimpse into her world and it sounds very chaotic but fun at the same time.
