A Portrait Painted With Words

Pray what is it that you try to explain?
Explain? Poetry portraits of words paint,
Feelings are felt; yet, words being so vain,
There's li'le to know but enjoy fragrant scent.
A flower's scarce smelt to know what it meant,
Scent be the path the joy in flower packs,
Problem is: words waft meanings howso faint,
Poet distracts still; turns, twists, and sidetracks.
Lucky, if his ferry fetches some fish,
But that can make no ferries fishing boats,
As melody, mere ornamental notes—
Fishing nor a fish dish be poet's wish.
Still dear, if you enjoy my word portrait,
And call it meaningful still, wow how great!
