Sonya Florentino - Good Start

It’s not the length
It’s the depth
It’s not the rhyme
But how sublime
It’s not the metre
But the pitter-patter
that goes on long after

It’s not the title
That's just a hoax
It’s not the ending
That’s the un-joke

It’s the beginning
That's when it starts
When it first grabs me
By the heart
The moment born
The seduction of poem
