I Hope That You Like This Poem
In all honesty, poetry isn't my best skill.
Having said that
Only through
Practice can anyone
Ever hope to improve.
The best poetry comes from the
Heart, for poetry, it is said, is
Art made
Through the written and spoken word.
Yearning for recognition
Only
Undermines a would-be poet's credibility.
Learning about poetry of the past
Is a better way to improve one's craft without
Killing one's chances of
Ever being taken seriously.
True enough I will
Have to practice writing poetry if
I ever want to find
Success.
Please understand; I'm
Only writing this poem to improve my poetry, as
Every poet
Must.
