hyacinths

[amadareneko]

I clipped some hyacinths
The other day
They were blue, insisting
That they were pink.
A surgical snip-snip
And I set them in front of my mirror
To see for themselves.

I like this one. It's short and sweet. I especially like the lines, "They were blue, insisiting that they were pink." I think, if we're writing a poem to introduce each separate author in our book (if we are indeed formating it that way) I think you should use this as you introduction. It's very lovely, and does rather sum up your approach to poetry, I think.
