Poetry My Friend
Glitter fell like Snowflakes
Onto the finished Painting
Poetry walked through the Door, face serious,
And scrutinized the Artwork.
I wasn’t sure until I spotted
A thin smile on his face,
He softly complimented me, and left.
I grinned, lips tight as a bowstring
As I sent my friend, Glitter away.
I called for Frame and, hastily
She came eager to be put to good use.
Nail and Hammer I sent for next,
And breathing hard, they slammed the door.
I told them that Poetry approved
And they screamed with giddy joy.
After they left I spun and twirled,
Admiring my work, I told Paintbrush:
“You did so well!” And, blushing, she smiled shyly.
Poetry, again entered
And I hurried to get the Door.
He handed me another Canvas
Then immediately left.
That’s when I called for Glitter.
