How to Write a Poem
This is how you write a poem:
Let your feelings flow.
Follow what your mind pours out
Wherever it may go.
Choose your words most carefully;
Try to not repeat.
Watch the rhythm but don't fret
About iambic feet.
Rhyme if rhyme is what you love
Though dangers sometimes lurk;
If your rhyming words sound forced
Your poem will just not work.
Anyone can write a poem;
Trying has no cost
But reality assures
We're not all Robert Frost.
