I have reluctantly realized
thinking of you
and writing your name
in midnight blue ink
on parchment paper
over and over
and over and over
while I whisper
each syllable
does not count
as poetry
though it feels like it
to me.

It’s definitely poetry when you write about it like this.

I loved this!! Brilliantly clever!! I thought it was a perfect description and visualization of being mesmerized and sent it to someone so they would understand what I meant when I used the word! Ha! And your comment at the end was a crack up – still not poetry!! Yeah, but it is now that you’ve written about it like you did!! Bravo!!!
