Best Poetry. (rhyme or not?)

A Poem by Keith
"

Ok, I am having a crack at this too, so here's my 2c worth.

"
Paint a picture
tell a story,
share your sorrow
howl your glory.

Take me where
I've never been,
show me sights
as yet unseen.

Make me laugh
Or make me cry,
if really sad
my tears I'll dry.

Lift my spirit
stir my soul,
arouse my senses
make me whole

These things I seek
in  reading time,
for me its bonus 
with a rhyme.

Thank you Jacob, just a little ditty that popped up on this current hot topic.
I write a lot of prosey stuff and free verse only because I am lazy. I do appreciate a rhyme and a form. This is a great piece.
