METAPHORICALLY SPEAKING.................

a Short Poem by You Know Who.

Chris Berry
Till the dawn, the words suspend themselves
Like a magic carpet forty thieves would ride.

Don't go, the words escape
And ring in my ears like the sounds
Of ducats changing hands in the market place.

We are one, the words emerge
And still the time like an off color joke
Spoken in mixed company.

  • With love it is important to say as much as you can with as little words as possible.
  • With love the mental images are so intense that only metaphores can describe them.
  • With Love a few right words can still the time.
Sometimes mental landscapes can be painted with a metaphoric brush.
