A poem comes in many guises.
A good one almost hynotizes,
drags a reader to the end
as if they'd found a long lost friend
Wakes in them, familiar feelings
makes them smile or leaves them reeling.
Says so much in so few words
or sometimes says so little
It glorifies exotic birds
or simple cuckoo spittle.
A poem has a humane hook
that leads us to a notion.
A cellar door through which we look
and share the poets true emotion.
A poem has a tale to tell
beginning, middle and ending,
and if it doesn't rhyme...oh well
that doesn't really matter.; ¬)
think you meant for a 'which' in this line : A cellar door through we we look. Otherwise, a perfect tongue in cheek offering from the master! -c
