Poem Artwork

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
There is an infinity of words
within poems waiting to be born;
they're attached by umbilical cords
throbbing with creativity's ink.

At the end of the third trimester, 
the poem moves into position;
held firm by place by contracting thought,
which will guide the words out of the pen.

The poet cries out in her struggle;
nothing worthwhile is without pain;
suddenly, there's a rush of fluid;
a newly born poem comes to life.

The moment is forever captured
when they are guided to sheets of white;
the poet laughs as the tiny words
make a permanent mark on the page.

First class. It shows your lyric talent. Keep them like this and then, too, try as many Senryus as can. Those I have read are very much a genre of your own.
