A whale on the beach,
A figure of speech,
A trouser seat snagged on a fence.
A bird in the hand,
A castle of sand,
A riddle that doesn't make sense
Form:
Have a great birthday, Brother Sam,
Figure of speech finds the writer;
The kind's as gentle as a lamb,
Anger turns sheep into tiger.
Topic: Birthday of Samuel Peligro (March 24)
When one is down and out
Do not give up on life,
The bible says
‘And it came to pass’
Never did it say
It came to stay!

A repost of an old Tanka form poem.
Discoveries within the stem glass,
strawberries are lemonade rubies.
Bellies are hungry to find riches,
stories deliver that meal with ease.
Eyes tormented by one another,
paradise seems within easy reach.
Dusk-rise now pales in comparison,
‘sky’s on fire’ is a figure of speech.
Blue and violet clouds unhurriedly grow
Adorning the sky for the evening show
The deck chairs are empty, and so is the beach
Time is no more than a figure of speech
Say it’s enough now, drift with the tide
Succumb to the stream of perpetual ride
There is no tomorrow, there was no today
You're gifted to see how the colours turn grey.
Poetry a figurative sense is one in which words or expressions acquire meanings that depend on their context of use. The literal sense is used to give words the objective meaning they have...
Poetry therefore exists when it exists
figure of speech... metaphor, metonymy etc. SO POETRY IS NOT WRITTEN TO AGREE OR NOT,IS to READ, understand, APPRECIATE... READ, READ a lot OF POETRY !
Why her of all people? Why'd I have to fall in love with her?
I'm losing my mind and it's not a figure of speech.
Tell me the truth, no tell me the lie do you love me too?
I'm under a different kind of pressure 'cause it looks like I'm falling deeper with you.
Was there a slip-up in life when I saw you two?
I hope you can understand that I'm just being me when I say, "I love you."
Are cucumbers cool
As a general rule?
How fresh is a daisy?
Are loons always crazy?
How snug is a bug
When he’s not in a rug?
How gentle are lambs
If not happy as clams?
How clever’s a fox
That’s as dumb as an ox?
How fit is a fiddle
Not clean as a whistle?
Are doornails most dead,
Or are dodos instead?
Is it drier than toast
To say “deaf as a post”?
Such puzzles befuddle and much mystify
Till suddenly you see they’re as easy as pie!
