A Verse For Algie
A challenge has been put to me
To create some more poetry
I’ll do my best to be creative
And not to rhyme while I’m talking to people
In real time
My favorite type of poem
Is one that’s metered and rhymes
But I understand that nowadays
That really isn’t a factor anymore
I think the very best poetry
Is the kind that opens doors to imagination
That inspires the artist and moves a nation
That lifts you up through depression and inflation
And leads you to self actualization
The kind that paints a picture in your mind
And takes you from the daily grind
Transporting you to far off lands
Where there is no war, there is no despair
And the lion lies down with the lamb
Peace out!
