Notes About The Poem

What's In My Diary

NOT for a contest


If I kept a diary no one would see
all the things that mattered to me
I think most of you might even agree
that's why a diary comes with a key

Excellent!! You have impressed upon me a superior write here Lin! I truly loved reading this illustrious poem this morning! Your piece certainly shows what everyone thinks about a diary...it is private and should not be read by everyone! I, like you, wrote my thoughts within poetry, not in a diary, or journal! What a grandiose write my friend, Great Work!!
