The Poet took a word, splashed it -- there --
onto the page. She didn't care
what people might say.
She was going to have her way
no matter what. She held creation in her hands.
A mighty weapon at her command,
the Poet wrote color in a world gone dark,
armed only with a pen. A spark
of beauty began to shine --
hope and love and peace burst forth in her lines
of verse. And when she was through,
she said, 'It's just poetry,
word flowetry,
that lets me do what I love to do.'
Good phrase is Word Flourty, Karla, you will go down in history as its originator. Great going.
