What Is A Poem? Poem by Pene Burkey

What Is A Poem?

Rating: 5.0


To rhyme or not to rhyme
Is not the question.
Neither is it based on
Facts or on fiction.

Whatever is in your
Heart or mind or soul,
Put it down on paper.
Sharing is the goal.

To judge or not to judge
Is not the answer.
Someone will relate to
The scenes you empower.

Remember, words have life.
They can help or harm.
A 'good' poem or 'bad' poem
Has spirit to charm! !
