Poetry is more than mere pageantry
Poetry is all-encompassing
Words are visions we're compelled to weave
Poetry is cognition most definitely
We can scramble an anvil, into a crystal ball
Add a dram of mystical, mix with luminol
Slide down a rainbow on half a banana peel
may find a pot of gold, or laugh until we squeal
Join the wee leprechauns dancing a real
Poetry, sweeps us away through a myriad of doors.
To sail the serpent's sea, land on a rouge shore.
Seeking Truth tea, and Unicorn horn.
Poetry lives in a vast galaxy
Poetry is Limitless Reality.
The midnight masquerade ball.
Seemingly slight brocade shawl.
Beseechingly glance, decayed hall.
Haunted trance, unafraid fall.
Vaunted skies evade all.
She tries dissuade call.
Decree daylight, unmade, befall.
of water sign, Cancerians are most emotional of all
seem moon cold but are warm and glow as luminol
sensitive individuals, they are caring and giving
circulate in familiar circles and are home loving
always nourish and nurture their relationships
take good care of all friends when down in chips
they don’t expect a return for their own favors
even distant ones can get a feel of their flavors
they are quite protective of their personal spaces
such as interests, possessions, and relationships
guided by intuition they think out-of-the-box
relying bit on gut feeling, logic at spurs is lost
they may easily be affected by failures and setbacks
and are prone to pessimism and lack the whack
their mood swings are famous and unpredictable
but it can be a bit overwhelming for other people
Cancerians are said to be tad complex and conservative
they cross-check everything, leaving you no alternative
over-sensitive, they tend to harbour imaginary hurts
doubts when cleared, can suffer from bouts of regrets
they are protective of their emotions and can be cringy
can’t let go of things easily and not help but be a clingy
