"Most people ignore most poetry
because
most poetry ignores most people."

Some of our friends
write poetry
informed by
literature, the bible,
deep reading & study.
Others of us (like me)
have a frame of reference
involving television
and movies.
I have "written" a poem
every line of which
is the title of a song
(I've made them links
so you can click on the line
and hear the song)
Wild card:
One line may be
a line from a film.
My line #2
is from Woody Allen's
Annie Hall
So without furthur ado-
How is this your buisiness?
on the Eve Of Destruction.
Now YOU try it!
then link here,
or link us to your
poetry cliques.
But not before
you give us a "shout"
in Comments.
(or is it a comment in shouts?)
Fondly, cloudia

I'm shy. Better to read your poems than mess up the world with mine. Love the red hibiscus. My hibiscus canes are turning grey for the cold Kansas winter. Down to 34 degrees this morning!

A beautiful hibiscus that you began with! And a very clever form of poetry.
ReplyDeleteTo discern poetry in the everyday takes a special gift.
i like the poetry in your clouds. :)
ReplyDeletei like the poetry in your clouds. :)
ReplyDeleteOh no! You've seen my attempts at poetry..not good :))))
ReplyDeleteYou are going to be spared from an attempt at poetry by me but not of my appreciation of your super photos and 'well done' poem :).
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely many mornings after! I will play this game too after I get back home tonight.
ReplyDeleteThanks, jolly!

Hah, won't even try - it's not fun to read my poetry:)) Prefer reading your rendition!
ReplyDeleteBig, big smiles. And poetry is probably more important to me than music. It is my music... to read rather than write.
ReplyDeleteHow clever you are!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful post.
ReplyDeleteWonderful images and poems.
ReplyDeleteHad to come here for my fix of photos and quotes.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, satisfied.
Aloha, Cloudia.
I love each of you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting!
This post started my day with a smile!!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite songs says, "you've got a friend."
ReplyDeleteThat's the extent of my poetry right now. Hope it's enough.
You are indeed a poet, you live a poem and we all see it here.
Jolly! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks
