Metaphor Poems

Examples of Metaphor Poems :

Tranquility

Time slides

a gentle ocean

waves upon waves,

washing the shore,

loving the shore.



Once you really understand that it isn't the words, but that the EVENT of the poem or message lies BEYOND the words, you will be able to make sense of metaphor in general and open up your world in a significant way.

From there, you can then begin to try and describe such things FOR WHICH THERE ARE NO WORDS, because they are events across time and space in your own way, using your own metaphors.

When you do that, you are considered to be "an artist".
