You'Ve Got Style When You Write

Free verse is great any day of the week,                                                                          it is here to stay.                                                                                                      Your poems may be a mixture of styles you know,                                                       that is what makes a writer grow.                                                                            Learning to mix their words each day,                                                                         makes for shorter nights-hooray.



A true poet is here to stay,                                                                                        they write with ink from an old typewriter each day.                                                    They look through the past and into the future,                                                               they need all that inspiration.

 

I started out loving all rhyme,                                                                                    that was to pass the time as I typed.                                                                                  As I have grown up,                                                                                                       I am now into acrostic.                                                                                                So now back to words,                                                                                                lets type away.                                                                                                          The next great poem is on it's way,                                                                                a win here and a win there.                                                                                      Maybe one day I will be famous,                                                                                then I will say hooray.
