Writing a Poem

Writing A Poem Subject to write poem about I had selected Sentence structure and spelling was corrected Before poem printed on paper had been laid out Also made sure knew what it was all about. Writing a poem is something you will do After thinking each subject through and through When thought process has finally been fully completed Formal check up of product is now needed. Seems like you were sure and knew from beginning That my great poem will be prize-winning And then had to be stored into an archive Through all time can readily, easily survive. Must insure my poem met required standard Through minds of many poets has meandered So full of charm and also containing much bliss Other poets started writing poems similar to this. Above all, what will be my greatest goal? It is for my poem to stay and remain in my soul Then in heaven have it turned into a song Forever there is where it finally will belong.
