Poetry Journals
Poetry's a way of writing a journal
Of things joyful, sad or controversial
Poets write of friendship and memoirs shared
Or despair at end of a love affair.
They write of the seasons that come and pass
Of moonlight beams and stellar stars amass
Stories of Christmas and all that it means
Of witches, ghosts and ghouls at Halloween.
Poets tell tales of their husbands or wives
Children and joys they bestow on their lives
Mother's and father's and the in-laws too
Brothers and sisters, all things that they do.
Some write of their youth and of their school days
A time lacking worries, blissful always
Of growing up and finding love that's true
Best poetry comes from what love can do.
When poets come to writing their last page
Afore departure from the worldwide stage
It's hoped their poems become history
When poets have flown to eternity.
