This week on Tuesday Tanka Robbie is out host. Here is what Robbie has to say: “Hi everyone, it’s Robbie here with you today, and my challenge for everyone is to write a syllabic poem using a metaphor.
The Oxford Dictionary describes a metaphor as follows:
“A figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.”
I have used bold type to display my metaphors
Invisible
She carries A torch for him, yet sadly He is blind to this Wearing her heart on her Sleeve. Worships the ground he treds. Unrequited the love she bears Ignored, she is rubbish underfoot. Yesterday’s leftovers blown to the wind.
Welcome to my “Heartland Echoes,” where I aim to share my poems with the world, along with my survival story and autobiography of childhood abuse, motivational quotes, and much more. Through my words, I hope to inspire others to share their own stories and experiences. Each poem is a piece of my heart and soul, along with a story of a traumatic past, crafted with inspiration, Hope, faith, love and passion. I believe that by sharing our art and emotions, I’ll be able to connect with others on a deeper level and create a sense of community.
