Poetry

Poetry comes from deep down within
Expressing your feelings from beginning to end 
The smooth flow of words create a distinctive rhyme 
Writing creative thoughts on a seamless line 
You can write on paper thoughts locked in your head 
Detailed reviews of what you have said 
Poetry with motion poetry in the time 
Random thoughts your hoping will rhyme 
Poetry can make you laugh feel happy inside 
Ink on paper a feeling of pride 
Write on a blank sheet of paper and fill it with ink 
Wanting opinions of what others may think 
Is this poem good enough to read and to share 
Will my witty rhymes take you there
Maybe you think now is the time 
Before you forget an aging sign 
Grabbing pen and paper, I begin to write 
Begin in the morning and finish at night 
Write down your feelings in horizontal lines 
The end of each sentence should carry rhyme 
Until the ball of the pen bleeds dark black ink 
Continue to write of what you may think 
Let your expressions flow with an open heart
Sometimes thinking where do I start 
Then read each line read thoughts within 
A good poem is written from beginning to end.

Well this does have beginning end and middle William...A writing indicting, your thoughts in Lines..It makes some sense, it also rhymes.' I guess you're new.' To the 'bowl of delights' Where we tell of love and hope and fancies flight ' Sometimes you might make freinds or foe's Then its ' fie fie fum ' and only heaven knows? So keep it simple keep it light, find happy days And sleep full nights'
