Metaphor

Lisa Babers
A Metaphor is a vehicle
driving along unmapped roads,
over unclimbable hills.
It transforms to glide across streams,
wingspan opens to take flight,
across valleys of descriptive language,
stopping only when the pen marks an end.
NO limits or boundaries exist
Alive in an open atmosphere,
the Mind a travel guide,
Exploring any and all possibilities.

I have a BA in English Literature and an MA in education. I currently work as a substitute teacher and write on the side. I love working with children and teaching, but my true passion is writing.  View profile

    Nice. I was just putting together a lesson plan on metaphor and came across your poem. I like it!
