Elegance is a flair,
Lasting radiance you exhibit.
Ordinary is all too mundane,
Quirky or surreal, I wish to choose.
Ubiquitous as you are,
Expressions comes easy to you.
Nothing surpasses your grace,
Charismatic in your personality,
Everything I am is you.
Everything I am is you.
This kind of poem is called an "acrostic poem" where the first letters of the lines spell out a word or words if you read them vertically. The word spelled out here is ‘ELOQUENCE’.
Expressions of life are very important to me. I choose to lose myself in activities that help bring out the expressions in me. Be it through dance, music, speech or writing, I constantly strive to express my thoughts and feelings to help capture my emotions.
wow, that's very creative to write a poem like that. I can only express my thoughts through writing and usually my fiction stories are inspired by my thoughts or about the people I see in everyday life.
ReplyDeleteThanks Prasanna. Any kind of expressive writing is creative :)
DeleteReally beautiful poem and picture. I'm enjoying reading the prose you create for each of your posts. :)

It was a first attempt too, Shanaya :) Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteAn exquisite poem: how lovely! :) I too, like you, find expression important. For me, it used to be more often through dance but now channelled into writing. <3
ReplyDeleteThanks Elly ! :) Dance was always the primary channel for me to express my feelings until I got back into writing again. So just go ahead and create your expressions the way you like it :) Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteNicely penned, EM. I didn't know about acrostic poems before. Thank you for sharing.
