The Greatest Poem Has Not Been Written

The best poem of all TIME HAS NOT BEEN WRITTEN? An all time greatest ever has not Yet been written. This does not permit you to sit Idling. You should stroll gently soothing Your soul while listening to Nature speak with the crinklng rasping Voice Of autumn' s fallen leaves. The best poem? The CHAMPION MAY exist as a DIFFERENT, a foreign Tongue. It might be sitting on a Shelf in Zimbabwe, Egypt or Spain. Whats more it could be in production This very minute. Even of the SMALL hand of a Prodigious child. What is it to write A poem. Truly, it is BORN OF Emotion. Tears and sweet Sweat Of devotion. A fire place with flames of Flickering. Hot coco mixing. Went a worth while cheerful day Gliding now FADE. The best poem should consist of Much imagery. And simultaneously be bright then gloomy In corners of the HEART it should stay Cozy in parts as it warms the frigid soul. Maybe CUDDLY KITTENS should set It's mood. As the coldest winter blowing. Those kittens at LAST have found a Home and knowing the wealth of love Overflowing. What is the greatest champion, unknown? Must it be an eternal secret? Oh, a stellar ambiance on a CHRISTMAS MORNING. AN authentic BEACON. ALL friends and family a festive relief. It is all done, now the night has come and Newly BORN. The ambiance lay SEDATE and satuated With lightly tasting Nog and rum. What is the greatest ever? Maybe it Does not yet exist. If ever a living poem did persist. How will it be perceived? As pleasant on a crumpled list? As a PRESENT OR A WISH?
