The Value of Poetry
Words are amazing, stuck in our heads
all the time they look for a way out
we are their channel always its door
so turn the key, find what it's all about
Whatever our direction in poetry form
follow your head, be bold, be strong
trust in your intellect to show its route
take its hand to lead, it'll do no wrong
No one can put value to one's words
even you may not think much of a write
but that piece someone may think it's so cool
exactly what they need to hear in their right
Sometimes something may be so simply sweet
professionals may write it off as so childish
but remember that piece has its exact place
there's a menu somewhere to fit your dish
As everything in life has a value
so does our words we pen together
someone somewhere will love it
to them, it's their precious treasure
(Can we really put a value on our poetic words? to some, it may be pretty average but to another, it could change their life so keep spilling the ink!)
