Poem


Is a poem not a poem
If it doesn't rhyme
Some would state quite clearly
It is literally a crime

So lets explore, trying not to ignore
The many forms that exist
Some are common, some are rare
And there are some I will have missed

There are haiku's and limericks
Cinquains and triolets
Dizains and sonnets
There are villenelles and paradelles
Sestina's and rondels
Golden shovels and palindromes
There are odes and elergy's
Pastoral and epics
Ballads and acrostic's
There are found and couplet
Calligram and loop
concrete and prose
And many more than those

But what is abundantly clear
And I make it known today
The role of a poem
Is the messages you convey

It has alliteration, communication
Imagery and rules
It has structure and story
Meaning and musical
It has pentameter and line breaks
Synonyms and verse
Length and metaphor
A message to converse
It is a portrate, a story
A lesson on a page
A laugh, a tear
A philosophy for all age
It is couplets and emotion
Consonant and noun
Song lyrics without music
A story that you have found

But is it a poem if it doesn't rhyme?
Hopefully I can make it clear to see
That in this world of chaos
Free verse belongs in poetry

It is not about the rhyming
But the emotion within each verse
The pouring of your feelings
When your at your worst

Its the words that are the meaning
The message that we send
Not wether we search through thesaurus 
To make sure the word matches at the end

So write about anything you feel
And im sure you will now agree
That what really matters
Is that we all love poetry!
