~Poetry Bazaar~

A Poem by Frieda P

Welcome, one and all~
 takefont row seat
our poetry circus will begin
we have jugglers of similies
a tight rope act of sonnets
court jester'd hyperbole tunes
alliterations of crazy clowns cursing
dactyls of fluttering butterflies
hip hop be bop meter and rhyme
stanzas of personifications abound
our theme is a villanelle of understatement
our subplot a spondee of Knick Knacks
where syntax, whose words these are I think I know
quatrains and couplets together in rhythm & time,
ironic symbolism is our first act
a nature of haikus will follow
ending with the Senryu finale...

Please enjoy the show
take a load off and relax
from your point of view

Oh Frieda, this did make me smile. There seem to be many poems around about writing poetry, but they are all so different and yours is a feast for the mind. I love that it's a circus, a metaphor for all the different styles of poetry(as you mentioned) and ways of expressing feelings.
What acrobatics we perform when writing. Your poem is such a lighthearted view of the process.
Wonderfully penned!

OMG - Im such a big fan of the Beatles and this just coursed through me veins like 'Being for the benefit of Mr Kite' that I had to skip all the queued-up RRs and just say that this is bloody brilliant Frieda - totally got lost in the roll up - roll up format and the whole ambience of the ye olde funfair.

This is bizarre poetry, hehe, I couldn't resist. It was quite an introduction to the rest of the show here among the more poetry and you left nothing out.

Your verse were jumping through rings of fire, words a high of death defying lines of wire.

Splendid appellation Frieda and with so many star performers on view at this literacy bazaar, I might not get on stage to recite a little cricket poetry !

(Unless you put a word in for me to the director... pretty please Frieda ? )
