My kisses.

I send you a dozen kisses,

the sweetest,
And as you count them to the very last,

See to it that none of them gets lost,
Savour them,

for I love you in earnest.

Poet:Njunguna.

I am not a poet.

There is such a thing as narrative poetry,occasioned by the fact that most poets are also story tellers,hence the poems have elements of narration.Narrations to a poem is however a different subject,and involves a reader getting to deduce the narrative from a poem. It involves getting to understand the poem correctly,so that you can tell the story the poet intended to tell.This is not hard,if you know what to look for,and the following is what you need to identify: 1)       The speaker also known as the persona,and is the one who speaks the words in the poem.Some poems can have more than one speaker,while others can have the poet as the speaker.   2)       The setting,which refers to the time and location where the story takes place.   3)       The situation which refers to the circumstances or state of affairs a character or characters in the poem find themselves in at a given time or moment in the...
