Notes About The Poem

As a Gorton (Manchester) Lad, I always thought there was only 2 kinds of Poetry
that wot I liked “The boy stood on the burning deck”
and that wot I didn’t like “Romeo, Romeo, where for art though Romeo”.
Since I came on poetrysoup I have found there are many forms, so I decided
to write this..

Analysis of My Poetry

Analysis of My Poetry 
by Robert (Bob) Moore

There are many poems on my list, of things that I should do
some have only one line, and others they have two
thoughts that popped into my head, while doing other things
then disappeared, from whence they came, see what tomorrow brings

It may be words for a new poem, or for those waiting there
the Muses make them come and go, continuity not their care
they like to play there in your mind, the words just out of reach
I really think that poetry, would be very hard to teach

So they come, and so they go, 
to and from where, we do not know, 
we just need to write them down
and this is where I start to frown

Is it Rhyme, or is it Lyric
Ballad, or maybe just an Epic
Limerick, Acrostic, or an Ode
Haiku, Tanka, I’ll be blowed

Cinquain, Quatrain, Alliteration
Sonnet, Couplet or Personification
Free Verse Poems can do my head
Death Poems are sad, cause someone’s dead

I think I know what I will do
I will leave it up to you
if you like it that’s just fine
I will just call all mine Rhyme

There are so many different forms of poetry like you say in your nice poem; it can be a bit confusing, at least to me! And it would be hard to teach; humorous write Bob!:)
