My Poetry World Poem by Romeo Della Valle

I think poetry,
When I am fully awake!
I think poetry,
When I am asleep!
I think Poetry,
When smiling,
I see the Moon!

I think of Poetry,
Every time
I see the colorful flowers
Of my happy garden!
I think poetry,
Whenever I see
An innocent child smiling
Even when he is hungry!

I think poetry,
When I see my brothers
Throughout the globe
Fighting one another
In unjustified dirty wars!

I think of poetry,
When I see the very air
That we breathe
Mercilessly being contaminated
All around the world!
When evil spirits
Have taken total control!

I think poetry,
When I see Faith and Hope
Slowly vanishing in the horizons,
When hunger and deceases
Still dominate the world
While those possessed by greed,
Quietly laugh in the background!

I think poetry,
When I think of Peace and Love
Finally controlling the World
And wisdom overpowers
Ignorance!
This is my Poetry World!
