Poetry and Life

are one

Life and poetry
functions of our mind
no better way to describe them
 that we will ever find

 

The words we use to live
during every passing day
add to our understanding
by what they have to say

 

Poetry requires us to think
about the intent of every word
 there is often a deeper meaning
than we have ever heard

 

This should be no surprise
to those wanting to learn
many hours must be spent
to find words that show concern

 

Education is highly prized
and so should it always be
to attain a level of excellence
requires effort of a high degree

 

We know the power of words
they control everything we do
to become facile in this medium
many hours of study will ensue

 

Finding anything worthwhile
starts with how you begin
letting poetry into your life
is one of the ways to win

 

The songs we love to sing
have many lyrics that rhyme
giving our music beautiful poetry
making it last forever in time
