"A Poem" by Teyuna Trynea Darris
A poem does not have to rhyme It simply shares a record of a tale about some interesting/practical event that all humans share.
A poem is a dream of the pictures we live (daily) of the stories we see, hear, taste, touch--- smell.
A poem is a reflection of the people, of the dream, of the vision, of the fight, of the struggle, of the hurts and sorrows
and freedoms and captivities and triumphant victories and defeat and loss and hopes. A poem is a story of a genre of an outlet,
of a means to share
of an outstrecthed hand of a friend who is seeking of a man who is weeping.
A poem is…
A poem is…
A song
A dance
A folding of the hands
An observation
A cry
An inclination---
A try
And celebration.
A poem is a poem.
