Poem 22- A sunny spot

A sunny spot

This afternoon I found a sunny spot on the floor outside
After heading to Blackwell’s (a bookshop)
To find some more poems to read and learn from
After a romantic liaison two years ago with
The Poems of Wendy Cope ( a poet)
I took a foray in the brain and loves of
Carol Ann Duffy ( another poet) as I sat with the sun ebbing away
As I devoured the pages this buffet ( a place to get an array of food)
Of metaphors and imagery
And through these poems I found more than
Inspiration
I found an emotional reaction to
Lines on a page
Words all in lines
Letters in to words
And I found a longing to achieve this same incredible feat
I sat in my sunny spot not noticing the hours
