Connotation


 

Connotation

 

into the pool

of your mind

a poet

            drops

                        each

                                    word

 

 

like a cut jewel

full of inner fire

spreading

            its own

                        many-faceted

                                    meanings

Oh I love the layout of this one! Another great find. Your words so true. The drop effects of the words leading to the overall pool for the reader to think on is excellent.

I prefer the words. Simplistic and based around just two verbs. You have provided the outline for the reader to fill. I like this type of work.

Thank you, Carol. I am a strong believer in the rhythmic power of visual poetry as well as the spoken word. More people read poetry than speak it. May I presume that the meaning was also there?

Hi Cynthia,
I like the way you have set this poem out, like ripples on water :)
