10+ Year Old Poem of Mine. "the Little Key"

THE LITTLE KEY
The little key said to the Lock he wanted to be free            
the Lock responded Im fear HeHe
it growled and snarled Looked mean
the little Key shook at the scene
the Lock was Big MAde solid
Told the little Key Only the bad Possibilities which would be
sounds came into the little keys ears with endless fears
As Nightmares creeping around in our minds
loney,Low Esteem, All of what you feel at sometime it seems
Another Key came up said be Free
The little Key Said Unlock the lock For me Pleasee
He Said You are Good I know But My shape wont work
Be Strong with Esteem Sure theres bad I know But
Also Good when Found would Overflow 
the little Key Shook and Wink; Close His eyes
CliCK CliCk ClinK 
Light Appeared 


My writing has changed so much since then. I first started writing poetry in about 10th
grade, yet, still I am not even close to the quality of art I want to approach
(Shakespeare, Dante, etc...). My older poems usually tried to teach a moral (lol). Hope
you enjoy reading it.

You know its not what the theme is, its about the will to try, lots of people have it in them they just don't try, you have it all and the poem was good, keep your faith in yourself and you'll accomplish what you want, God bless and keep the writings flowing, Robert A. Ball
