Allegorized Poems | Examples

perfection 
in a fight
      against convention

portrayed
&
       allegorized 
with passion
    so prominent
in  colour
  so pure

         living images 
wander
 the mind
infused
        by an impulse

          preoccupied
            with
              originality
in wild  gleams
               of fancy

soaring imagination
on
    the
       wings
            of 
               the past

crowded canvasses
  the aim
     sincerity&truth
a certain perfection 
in a fight
      against convention
  to open eyes
      in amazement

poetry depicted
       painted&portrayed
       allegorized with passion
so prominent
in pure colour
as a footnote of their art
fresh hours
         of wonder
          smiles&signs
         living images in the mind
infused
        by an impulse
          preoccupied
            with
              originality
these wild  gleams
               of fancy
in soaring imagination
on
    the
       wings
            of the wind
