Spaces
There are wonderful spaces between words
They show the difference of the words shown
Without the spaces the phrase would run on
And there would be little that could be known
The space bar is large to make things easy
I hit this with ease when space is needed
I must show dividing space between words
A hot button, a most used spot heeded
Even this poem, spaces are about
Signals the end of words and start of more
Space is necessary to continue
To bring a poem a much needed floor
An ending space that I do spread onwards
If I choose, make a statement at the end
I will show off some spaces here towards
The emphasis of a word, now a blend
