One Last Poem

What's a poem?
In my home,
Rhyme is for the folks in Rome,

If I should,
Call it good,
Happy goes the neighborhood,

I suppose,
Poets close,
In a warm and wistful pose,

On the way,
I would say,
One last poem to win the day,

On the theme,
When you dream,
Don't forget a little steam.
