Between The Lines Poem by Rose Kanana

Between The Lines

Rating: 5.0


The lines are visible
The lines are legible
The lines are well organized
They are like a road map
Don't just read the lines
Read between the lines
For between the lines the truth lay
For between the lines transition lay
For between the line there is a sigh of relief

Don't just read the lines
Read between the lines
For between the lines lay the beauty of the poem
For between the lines you grasp the theme
For between the lines lay poetic justice
For between the lines you identify with the poets emotions
Don't just read the lines

Between the lines you see the horizon
Between the lines you appreciate the power of words
Between the lines the truth lay beautifully naked
Between the lines emotions are not masked
Between the lines lay the character of the persona
Don't just read the lines darling

Beauty is hidden
Beauty is covert
Beauty is patience
Beauty is for all
Choose beauty with care
Don't just read the lines brother for between the lines you find a gem

Great work....the famous cliche 'read between the lines' now makes poetic sense.

I love this poem most, it tells us to unravel literal and metaphorical meaning. At times is hard to decode the poets meaning especially where symbolism is rich.At times the message can get twisted and someone else may specifically know thus i echo your words Between the lines you see the horizon Between the lines you appreciate the power of words Between the lines the truth lay beautifully naked Between the lines emotions are not masked Between the lines lay the character of the persona Don't just read the lines darling
