Beyond Perfect Description...
For the 2025 November PAD Chapbook Challenge, poets write a poem a day in the month of November. Day 5 is to write a description poem.
It's tots naps-time so I couldn't resist a crack at today's prompt.Especially after fresh inspiration
Your darling grincan melt my heartlike ice-cream in JulyYou turn me very youngand oldYou make me laughand cry
And as you slip your hand in mineI feel so very smalluntil the way you look at memakes me feel ten feet tall
Your innocence is holy groundto hold your hand in minegives me a sense ofof being heldtwixt mortal and divine
Dear precious, loving,eager totso tender and so smartYou make me feelas if I holdthe whole worldin my heart
Words fail, each time I try to spell love's ink-defying charmsLike trying to gather the sky and ocean in my arms
