Carefully coiffuring the etiquette garden of the cascading words
Trimming the elegant exuberant plethora of stumbling somnolent leaves
Happened upon an opulent slithering serpent and some bees
Hiding within the myriad of sublime transendent trees
Shrieking in a shrill voice a cacophony was heard
And the shunned godly creature
Slithered serenely from the place of my obstreperous yells
And the words fell back into a peaceful tranquility and tune
Excusing the moments as serendipitous and absurd
But was harangue for no reason except tales of Slew (Foot)
And went about my business without any further adieu

Thank you love happily… I believe that I have not understood lesson # 3 too well at BU 201… I’m trailing in my comprehension of the poetic material… Thank you for visiting today.

You are welcome Bojenn. I had a good read with your poem and I can tell you that it had a huge part of the qualities of lesson #3. I was able to see and feel the anchor of the poem as I read through every line.

Wow… thanks! What did you see as an anchor? I’m at a loss when they say, find your anchor… As there is never just one point when I write… So, the lesson is confusing to me… Focusing is important… This will be an ongoing lesson…

The anchor is the idea that holds the poem together, it starts from the beginning of your writings and then becomes clear as the reader gets to the end. In your poem, the introduction of the opulent slithering serpent and bees, the sound they made and the yell from you, all gave the poem the meat needed to cook the meal. And from my analysis, the meal was delicious.
