A Beautiful Poem Poem by Matthew Holloway

I feel the need to write
One of those beautiful poems
The kind that makes people stop
And play out compliments
On it's style and subject
The kind that paints a picture
In the readers eyes
Makes them feel something else
That maybe they've not felt before
Or not felt in a long time
Yes one of those beautiful poems
That wouldn't look out of place
In the poetry anthologies
Found on a thousand bookshelves
I'd like to write one like that
Maybe become remembered for it
The poet who made them feel
The poet with that wonderful soul
Alas such a poem evades me
For now I'll just write
Whatever comes to mind
