The Secret

The Secret

Type out your thoughts
In Snatches!
A word here, a phrase there,
Even whole lines that may rhyme, or not!

Abstract, it must be.
Play with the order
of words - Verbs afore, Subjects behind!
Jumbled up, all, as you wish them to be!

Coin a few new words.
A few
mind you!
Not too many that the gist be missed!

A rhythm, divine or otherwise,
Helps!
Try to think as have many before you!
You will find out it is easy.

Finally, add it up,
Publish it on your blog,
Add links from Google,
Facebook, Twitter & the lot.

And Lo & behold,
You are a poet!
As am I one!!

What colour are you inside?

What colour are you inside?

Satin Pink & Turquoise Blue,
Bloody Red & Plain White too!

Purple, Beige, Grey, Yellow, Green,
Is that the colour you are within?

A - B - C - D - E - F - G -
Even None with that thick, black T!

Nylon Nets & Crimson Lace,
Black & Blue - in the Book of Face!

Be bold & reveal your innermost hue,
And ne'er an ailment may befall you!!

poor she says.
but how poor can she be...
a poet with words so rich
and pure as the ones that i read here.

struggling - that may be as it is.
one struggles in life many a time,
more often so when one is
pursuing the search for knowledge.
it's an eternal thirst, difficult to quench.

well, happy am i with the words
that she has for me -
prize enough.
i don't ask for more.

for, i am no poet. just
an amateur player dabbling with some
images, some ideas, thoughts,
a few celluloid reels,
and people.
