Poetry

What is this poetry thing really about
Why it is just simply everything and all about life
You may choose to share your feelings with others
Or simply describe something special you’ve seen

You can use it to teach in an interesting way
Or explain your own thoughts on whatever you choose
You can create it with rhyme or just use a rhythmic flow
But it’s always about life so not always pretty

Creating your poetry of course can be hard
But like a medicine it can be good for your soul
Sometimes all it takes is to write your thoughts down
For your pains to be eased and the healing begun

Poetry writing is good exercise for the mind
It’s an interesting discipline of ordering words
The greater your vocabulary the easier it can be
And even beginners like me can create poetry worth reading
