Good Poetry

Good poetry is in the eye of the reader What one person loves, another disdains Some like meter, some like free verse, Like some prefer oak, others want cedar For some only a proper sonnet reigns While for others nothing could be worse It’s hard to say which poetry is the leader, written July 24, 2021
