The Goal Poem by Lynn W. Petty
The Goal
Rating: ★5.0
What is the goal of poetry?
To wake man and society,
That power narrows man's concern.
Words light the way, as man's lantern.

Through poetry we do narrow man's view of what we are writing of, in a way. We cause the reader to focus on our message in each poem. We light the way as a lantern, leading the reader to see what we see through our poetry. Excellent poem, wonderful imagery all leading us to think along these lines. Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
