My Poetry

There aren't many poems I truly like,

poems like rhyme are not my speciality,

I don't understand these poems,

that seem to envelop me.

I wake up on a cold July day,

or decide to write on a warm May evening,

and the words pour out.

No punctuation,

no form,

no flow.

My favorite poem has a name,

The Lovesong of J.Alfred Prufrock,

Like my poems it has,

no rhyme.

I cannot write like the greats,

I'm like Petit the Poet.

But with the practice I will learn

I will grow

I will achieve

And my poetry will become something.

Some call it hubris,

others call it vain,

but this I call it my goal.

Thousands of people love reading and writing with rhyme but billions of love stay away of rhyme so ..I think, you do what you want to because people just are made to stop you reaching your goal... just don`t let them win .. let them know what the beautiful thing you are with the passion for writing ... beautiful poem, I enjoyed it and appreciated your kind thoughts. It`s excellent .. And hey, keep writing! ;)
