When I was but a youngster
A poem was just a poem
A little rhyme for little people too
I learned a new perspective
When teacher sat me down
And taught me how to write like poets do
P is for the perfect poem, poets polish late
R is for the reader up at night
E is for the eloquence, others emulate
T is for the tact in how you write
T is for the trust you win, when you tell the truth
Y is for the yearnings of our youth
P is for the passion, properly employed
O is for the only one you love
E is for the ebullience, thoroughly enjoyed
M is for the magic moon above
S is for the silly side, someone spied in you
A is for the artful things you do
R is for the right to speak
E is effort too, and that is why a poem is...
