The Art of Expression! (An Ode To Poetry)
What a joy for ev'ry woman, man, girl, and boy
To employ a pencil or pen, just like a toy,
Or more like a tool, used to create something cool,
Following certain rules, that they had learned in school.
Rules, that are used to engage the pen with the page,
When words should not be caged, but be put out on stage.
Words, that are used to describe a jubilant vibe.
Words, that bribe the hearts of an exuberant tribe.
A tribe, that sometimes hide their emotional side,
Then swallow their pride, to show the tears that they cried.
When dried are all the tears, that had come from their fears,
Words will often appear to be shared with their peers.
And, what a great way to share with others who care.
Especially those who dare to complete "the pair."
Or, for those who have the right to fuss and to fight,
Relieved of frustration, by the end of the night.
