The Craft of Poetry

Crafts can be present in many forms Molded with steady hands and arms Creating art with good design Following every curve and line. There is a craft built from a word Strung together, written or heard Like strands of pearls, each one a gem Or pretty flowers on a stem. You create a sound with your voice How you express it is your choice So, design your words, craft them well With poems and stories, you may tell. Perhaps that is the best craft sought To speak kind words, to share a thought.
