Pleasures of Poetry

Poetry is a pleasure in motion

painting pictures through the use of words

creating a landscape of sheer enjoyment

somewhere to escape from the stress of life

to submerge yourself in rhymes 

soak up the intense passion it brings

indulge in all its glorifying luxury

whether it be full of love or dark strife 

poetry is for all types of people

not to be held in the laps of the gods

but dipped into on a daily basis

so for everyone, poetry is rife! 

Poetry is a joy to behold...there`s plenty for everyone, so come and participate...!
