Verb your words

Verb your words in gowns;
parcel metaphors in rhyme,
wall your senses; noun
your verses; still there’s time.

  1. This is perfect for that picture. I really like the idea of verbs getting dressed up for prom night or something of the like. Or maybe they’re younger and are fishing around in their dress-up box during playtime. 🙂

    I know it’s really his teacher who is talking, though.

  2. A gown made of words, i think it would be lovely. And there could be twist, a gown of words we use the most, or least. Very interesting poem, it certainly stirred my imagination and I find that precious, with short pieces especially.

  3. ‘verb you words’ – wonderful take on the prompt and – in fact – I have done so, on multiple occasions … they seldom put up much of a fight ٩◔̯◔۶
