• It is the story anyone can read
    And anyone can understand
    Sending a varied message at each repetition
    Like a diamond that twinkles differently
    At each turn

    It can reduce you to tears
    Or drag out a bubble of mirth
    Or cause your fists to clench
    With each line

    Poetry, the word elegance
    And, in some strange way
    Each poem, each verse, each line, each word
    An elegant emotion
