Syntax I Am
I'm just a little turn of phrase,
to help them smile and amaze,
not appear boring or dull.
I'm your voice, how you sing,
how you make them all take wing,
suck them in, then create a lull.
Feel my rhythm, feel me sway,
long, meandering thoughts to get you lost and find your way,
or short and succinct to get you down the street.
A little syntax now and then,
wielded by the poets pen,
to the ear is pleasant and sweet.
