Here there’s park-like grass patches, to lavish nature grand
A gourmet plaza, a casino church, and fast food, in the hand
Varied architectural shapes of gray, brick, two-story or three
Most all that you’d want is here in Christchurch; but reality

Statuesque Queen Victoria is marbled high in a garden scene
There’s a chess game, half-size of a man, for ones so keen
Myriads of cosmopolitan identities for art, music, and fun
And the grandest Library I’ve seen, for one whose on the run [comments] => 1 [counter] => 178 [topic] => 25 [informant] => Lilly-Quill [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

I love your descriptions
they took me to this place immediately!
I felt it, I saw it, I touched it.
Bravo to a wonderful write!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
