The Heart of Poetry
: Go with the Flow by Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens

Poetry is like
A water-fall
Once it starts going down
You might as well
go with the flow

Poetry is like
a burning log
once it is lit
revel in it's glow
bask in welcomed
release
of warmth

Poetry is like
an incubator
if the egg
stays warm
long enough
it will hatch

Poetry is like
the sunrise
occasionally a cloud
will block it's view
but sooner or later
we see the light

Poetry is like
an invention
if you toy with it
tweak it just right
it may start
to make sense

Poetry is like
having a sibling
there is always
another person
who can relate
to your dilemma

Poetry is like
a heart shaped
piece of chocolate
a little of it
is good for you
but over indulgence...

Hey! What am I saying
everyone knows
you can't over- indulge
in Chocolate
and can one really write
too many poems
if so then
it's a 'good thing'
'cause
over-poetry-a-zation
might eventually lead
to successful
royalties paid
