My Poetry

My Poetry

For me poetry is a way to relax,
it's a way to forget, 
about my income tax.
To paint a picture, with rhyming words,
it can be about anything, 
perhaps, a flock of migrating birds.
A story told for all the world to read,
it may be about a young lad, 
who plants a magic seed.
I would like to think, 
the poetry that I write,
Creates happiness, and perhaps, 
brings a little delight.


Tango.
