Science is for those who learn; poetry, for those who know. — Joseph Roux, Meditations of a Parish Priest

To be a poet is a condition, not a profession. — Robert Frost

Everything one invents is true, you may be perfectly sure of that. Poetry is as precise as geometry. — Gustave Flaubert

The mind riots against walls
To free graceful words
Decaying esteem
Begs for graceful flow of thoughts
Rioting in write

Inspired by this week's 3WW: accentuate, glamour, pitch
Sorting through buttons
Rainbow colors in glass jars
Pour them out on plates
Helping my Mother
find just the right one for my
blouse she's been making
To me, such a treat
Like searching for lost relics
Each like precious stones
Some have two or four
holes..some have no holes at all
Mom wants shanks, no holes
Some furry, but most
solid and designed in shapes
My eyes in delight
I want fur..I frown
as Mom frowns, shakes her head no
"
Too big, it's for coats"
I still frown, and pout
Mom perks an eyebrow and points
"
Like in this pile"
"But those are so small!"
Mom shoots me that look..defeat
I glare at pile
With a goal I go
Exploring for tiny gems
The furry mock me
And then a sweet find
Curvy, glistening ruby
smooth and plump button
Cradled in my hand
"Look!" thou which denied me fur
Thunk it, just said "Mom"
Her beautiful eyes
Twinkled in her approval
She grins, "
That's perfect!"
My heart leaps, happy
Not for finding the button
For joy, in our search

Button Jars! gemgirlart
Your mind cradles thoughts.
Snares creative, flowing words.
Perfect! Now write them.
----------
Cradled by your heart
Perfect Love, expanding quick
Snared in deception

Adding this one..Cradled by your heart
Perfect Love, expanding quick
Snared in deep rapture

This is my first 3 Word Wednesday, so I thought I'd keep it short and do a couple of haiku's. I had not done this style in awhile, so this is fun :D Hope you enjoy.
