POEM STARTER

Submitted by SmileyGuitar

Write a poem that starts in a cheerful, bright mood, but then reveals underlying anger or bitterness.

Bide Your Time

All good things come to those who wait

We can sit, we can delay

This form of art takes days-


Days to form

Days to perfect

We have time to bide

The clock has been checked

The work pours from the paintbrush


It

Falls

Into

Place

But now it runs

It runs down the canvas

The art has started a race


The paint is barely viscous

We rise with the sun

We run, run, run

But it is too late


Time and tide waits…….for no one.
