What Is A Poem? Poem by Kudakwashe Kasio

What Is A Poem?

Rating: 4.5


What is a poem?
The words may be sweet,
Unlike water they still leave you thirst.
The vocabulary river is deep,
But the words are scarce
Which I still wonder, what is a poem?
It may sound as good as a singing dove,
But its meaning has been forgotten because we listen without love,
Which leads me to my conclusion,
What is a poem?
The word may be short"POEM",
But it gives the longest meaning
We always jump to the conclusion without knowing the beginning
If only we knew,
what is a poem?

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This is my first poem I ever come up with. I want my friends to the expression of poetry and its meaning which remains untold even to the land of words "Dictinopolis."If only I knew the one who made the word, may be he could have told me the answer.
"What is poem? "
I hope you like it.

If you knew what a poem was, you would write one, correct? There are many different types of poems. Some rhyme, some don't. If they don't rhyme, what makes them a poem and not prose? When you know the answer to that, then you will know what a poem is. Thanks for posting, and welcome to Poem Hunter!
