And care not to look today
What comes out
And lays on this page
Is just
Words
Not poetry
So there are no rules
Like paint only becomes art
After enough people say it is
These words can disappear
Be used in different order
But
They
Are
Just
Words
Owned by none, used by many
For Poetry Jam

yet another cool poem
I say this is poetry and so very well done! Word crafting is what we do, what we love, and you do it very well!
Glad to see you here in Poetry Jam again. Smiles. You know, there are so many definitions and forms of poetry I don't think any can say what is or is not. Actually, if the poet calls a piece of writing 'poetry' I will accept his/her definition! And what you wrote IS a poem.
And I agree with you completely!
Ever consider publishing your poems?
Good one, Gail. :o)
You are quite skillful with the words there girlie.
I have been browsing through some of your past stories - Today I had Andrew and Football in my sight and you have plenty so it was most enjoyable. I especially liked the post where he was assisting little ?cousin baby with football. Many Likes :)
eh i am not much for letting rules define poetry...much more liberal than classical, am i
I like poetry without rules best of all--lots of creative paths to take!!
One of your best, Gail.
