The Very Last Poem
this is the last poem
that i'll ever write
the very last lines
i'll set into rhyme
giving the thoughts in my head
a much needed rest
with nothing else left
that needs to be said
this is the last poem
i'll pour out on page
any left over words
i'll give them away
maybe somebody else
could use them to say
a few of the things
they've been unable to say
the very last poem
to come from this hand
with all that's been said
no need to say it again
i've weaved tapestries
from beginning to end
now feel the need
to set myself free
and set down this pen
This actually isn't the last poem...
I've got too much rhyming still going on in my brain...
I do sometimes wish it would stop though...
