- My Kitchen Table Poetry -

A poem can be about anything you want
Convey any message you happen to have on your heart
Just find something smart to say - so the words will come gliding
Poetry can be many things
What warms your heart and thoughts
In a moment of joy or relieve your pain
If you do a bad write - your next one will be improved
There is always someone who likes poems that others do not like
The most important thing is that your poem will be to the benefit of someone
As you write - you live
As you live - you write
You can always reach far
if it is not narrow
into the door of your heart
That writing poetry can have a therapeutic function
True and good words about friendship, joy and sorrow
Thank you for sharing

Congrats on your win. I love that you used the kitchen table for writing. Our kitchen has always been the heart and warmth of the home, where friends and family gathered at the table to talk and laugh and share.

"that writing poetry can have a therapeutic function"...That line alone should catapult the poem into top contention.
