Extended Metaphor Poem


Windswept pages 


A good book is wind 
It starts as a subtle breeze 
Gradually a cloud of thoughts form and the wind picks up 
Increasing it's velocity until it overpowers your surroundings 
A debris of ideas hurricane your mind 
A tornado seems to grip you enveloping you in it's twists and turns 
Then as the flurry of words deviate reality sets in 
The storm fades



Title: Windswept Pages
Style of poem: Extended Metaphor
Inspiration: Getting lost in a good book
