A Picture Poem by okoye charles
A Picture
The moon rises in a darkened scene
In circle of grey, in black and white
A melancholic skies, the eyes do capture
A haunted portrait hanging on the walls of the heart.
Imagine each star as a brilliant flash;
A flower dazzling the mind with its petals?
Imagine the planets posing with you;
A beautiful model, surrounded by hungry beggars?
Do you not wish for a horse;
A ride far away from these blind lenses,
From these dead clicks and hollow pictures;
To the light, to the friendly images of your senses?
Or Do you stand and pose, smiling
At the camera, at the dying world
And capture the fleeting moment, hoping
That a picture will not tell a thousand words?
Still, a piece of wondrous magnitude, such that my soul truly flew there!
The moon rises in a darkened scene In circle of grey, in black and white A melancholic skies, the eyes do capture A haunted portrait hanging on the walls of the heart. i like the beginning of the poem due to the phrases and epithets created by the poet.....it is extraordinary...and needs some merit which the poet has in abandon............
I think there are a couple of grammar points in verses one and two that need ironing out and then this would be excellent. It's still good!
