IS THIS A POEM?
Sitting in Archway café
small Americano
milk on the side.
 Young blonde mum
 tête-a-tête with
 young blond baby.
 Baby's liitle face
 turns to observe
 the room
 takes it all in
 takes it all in.
 Wahwah soundtrack blaring
 blurring my eyes and ears.
 Behind the counter
 keep-fit manager explains
 boxing moves to bored
 Brazilian barista.
 Baby takes it all in.

Um, if it sings in your heart; and it resonances with the emotive concepts of others - then i guess it is poetry ...
Hi Davoh. I think I was just wondering whether writing this down with line breaks, instead of as one paragraph, would make it a poem.
I was actually sitting in a cafe at the time, marvelling at that tiny baby's very observant, intelligent expression. And the cafe's sound system was blaring out some mindless noise which some consider to be 'music'.
Definitions in the eye of the beholder!
