P-O-E-T-R-Y-F-O-R-A-L-L



P-icturesque words, aptly spoken,
O-n a cobbled stage,
E-nchantingly articulated,
T-hrough each cited page
R-endering hearts of avid listeners
Y-oung at any age.

F-ree verse, haiku, sonnet, limerick,
O-penly rehearsed,
R-etelling each and every story
A-ll in rhythmic verse.
L-ove and uttered lyricism
L-ong to intersperse.

~William
