What Makes a Poem Sing

The scenes of nature, Oh so sweet On seasons that come ‘twixt and ‘tween First comes the cold, then scorching heat And sunrises on horizons seen… And when a child falls on the ground A kiss to send them on their way With big bear hugs felt all around Or when children lay down to pray… When trials of life, and troubles fall A touch of someone you hold dear And pictures that hang on the wall Inspiration may come with a tear… For when the words on paper ring… That is what makes a poem sing!
