Biopsy

Biopsy


I wrote a poem in 2005 called Flowers Fade. Why is this poem a real poem. This is Biopsy. I was asked to print out a poem on the computor for a woman i had met her in the lieberry. SO i said just let me recite a poem to you instead and chose the FLowers FAde. Of course i forgot the words and so i decided to do Biopsy. Why is this poem a real poem? Lets opine this flower open petal by line by line by petal. Flowers Fade (TITLE) a title is the first line of a poem it is the first thing people read and they judge your poem to see if it fits the title a poor title will send women screaming from there homes. I saw the flowers on the roadside, this is a straightforward statement meaning literally what it says this is called Syntax, the comma is used correctly the second line is they were all so pretty to me; this is Synecdoche the semicolon makes a break for a new idea. Line three is they seemed permanent to me, another literal statement of Syntax. Line four is somewhat differant  Why is this poem a real poem? But snow will frown-- a Paradox the dashes add the thought to the next line as well as Line five is wind and rain and sun. The wind and rain and sun have come as well as snow. This is called Metonymy . Line six is fixed and stands there all alone a fine example of Syntax The flowers are all gone. WHo hopes you liked this Biopsy of his poem. Flowers Fade. Flowers Fade

I saw the flowers on the roadside,
they were all so pretty to me;
they seemed permanent to me,
But snow will frown--
wind and rain and sun.
The flowers are all gone.
