The Blue Glass Jar
Vicks VapoRub jar;
Blue glass from a bygone time,
Such simple beauty,
Discarded in their millions,
Now treasure in my window.
NOTE: This style of poetry requires 5 lines, with syllable count 5-7-5-7-7 and the third line should form a bridge between the first two and the last two lines, such that this is virtually three poems in one.
