This is the ceremonial festival of marriage,
A bride is decorated with garlands and rings,
Necklaces she has worn with costly ornaments,
Beauty is attracting all, groom has to come.

The Chance Operations Of The World Literature Into A Verse Paragraph
10 January, 2019
In the attempt to define the term 'literature', one can distinguish between two general directions: a broad and a narrow definition. The broad definition incorporates everything that has been written down in some form or another, i.e., all the written manifestations of a culture (hence, there are terms such as 'research literature', 'the literature on civil rights', etc.) . Needless to say that such a broad definition is problematic as it does not really facilitate communication about the topic. Furthermore, this concept neglects the fact that in many cultures in the past and for a number of indigenous peoples today, literature has not been captured in written media but has been passed down in a long oral tradition of storytelling, myths, ritual speeches, etc. Attempts to come up with a narrow definition have, however, led to such a diversity of approaches that one can hardly talk about 'the' narrow definition. Nevertheless, it is possible to sift out some of the criteria scholars have applied in order to demarcate 'literary texts' from 'non-literary texts'. These criteria include:
...

Cows milked: mitigated mooing in the meadows then
Weaving on the warp, some workaholic women
...
Wisps on the Wind
Floating, fleeting
Softly shape-shifting,
Cottonballs carried
...
Each word's a chord,
A tone, a colour,
Juxtaposing images and sounds
In harmonising order,
...
With words we weave a tapestry,
A world of beauty, bright and free.
Through rhyme and rhythm, meter too,
We bring our dreams to life anew.

Nor when prose decorated is like frieze;

Versification variously warbles as wondering Willow
The wisp fascinating famous fellows too to vie with all
To enjoy ever emancipating engravings of ideas in the air!

I take from Wordsworth the Love of Calm Beauty-

alliteration, allusion, analogy, apostrophe,
archetype, assonance, blank verse -

Sordidly, she stumbles.....shuffling south of th' sun porch Steinway;
Sighing sensually, supined social-service, such superfluous satiation;
Stained silk sheets, softly shrouding......seductively shaped shoulders;

And now they are turning away, turning up the rocks
Towards the faces of god knows what—

But poetry is my affliction.
