Notes About The Poem
I'm not putting down anybody's style here . I'm just explaining why I write the way I do. I'm jest havin' fun y'all.
My Poems
I believe good poetry,
Is easy on the mind.
Not hard to understand at all,
No hidden fruits to find.
No words so big you'd have to use,
A college dictionary,
To understand what I have writ,
Or ask some visionary,
To explain the meanings,
Hidden in the words.
To try to be too "artsy",
Would make me look absurd.
I talk about my life and loves,
My opinions I unfurl;
The things that lift my spirit,
And what makes me want to hurl.
I want my poems to be fun,
And interesting to read;
To be nourishing and wholesome,
The mind and spirit feed.
I want them to be easily read,
No confusing drivel.
My words are plainly spoken,
'Cause I've no time for riddles.
