5th FINALIST IN THE 'POETRY FOR ALL'  COMPETITION 2014

OUT OF 1,500 ENTRANTS

POETRY FOR ALL

Whether you are short or tall

Slim or chique

Whether your tongue is in your cheek

Poetry is an everyday event

And oh how it is heaven sent!

Poetry is a mover, groover and a cooler

Poetry is pleasing to the troubled brow

Even more so when there is a crow

Listening, high and low

Poetry has its peaks and troughs

And oh how we never get enough!

Poetry is inventive, creative and incentive

Panoramic, photogenic and at times so graphic

It’s a way of the world, not curled

Poetry is beautiful, beautified

Poetry writers, write so right

Their skills can be thrills that spills

From line to line, page to page

The nib of the pen writes over and over again

Depicting a picturesque, pictographic pictorial

For all that it enthralls

So you see

Poetry is for all
