It's Still Poetry

respecting the art~

If you lay some words on me and they don't mean a thing to me

it doesn’t mean that it’s not art, It is - if coming from the heart

Just because I don’t agree or understand completely

doesn’t mean it’s asinine (we all feel this from time to time!)

If your poem lacks eloquence or doesn’t make a lot of sense;

or if it fails to end in rhyme, it doesn’t have to all the time.

Poetic types can just express, how we’re feeling more or less

through funny, silly, inane chat - I guess we just converse like that!

I really enjoyed this fun write. What you say is so true. I appreciate other's styles because I seem to use alot of rhyming. It just comes easily but I would love to be able to incorporate more of a free style from time to time. That being said, we are all different and the main thing is, it comes from the heart. Great poem!

I've tried my hand at free style but it always ends up drawing me back to a rhyme! Thank you Dara

Very true. Many pieces i read mean something different to me than the writer intended. Doesn’t mean that i enjoy the read any less though :)

a well written poem with rhymes, though you say it does not matter, nice one by the way

[Mari' Emeraude]

lol thank you. I think sometimes I just THINK in rhyme whether I want to or not! Do you find that's the case too? (from one poet to another! )

[Quill]

yeah sometimes but in your case I'll attribute it to talent

[Mari' Emeraude]

:D I'm most humble.
