Poem That Are Well Read Poem by Francie Lynch

Poem That Are Well Read



I know I'm not alone
Thinking readers like good-feely poems;
Not poems on politics,
But on love and gnomes,
That offer happiness to you at home.
I'll forgo writing verses on death,
My lovely images will snatch your breath.
I'll ink lines about an old flame's door,
The hesitation to knock once more,
To see if she, like me, is free,
And re-ignite the flickering light
That rained down from our starry night.

People want to feel good more,
So I won't write about Civil Wars;
Or Armageddon on the horizon;
Millions dead with a final solution;
A leader devoid of absolution
For the lies he spewed,
And aborted resolution,
For a sin that should not be.

I'll write about aging well,
Finding water in a dried out well,
Overcoming not feeling well,
Lifting a grandson with Well, well, well!

These be the poems that one reads well.

poetry has become too political these days. I agree with you a hundred per cent. Truly love is poetry's goal. Encore! Encore! Encore!
