The Essence Of A Poem

     When it comes to writing, most say
It’s something that can be taught
And in a sense it can be true but can
That be considered as a trained thought

Creativity should come naturally
From fantasy or from what we know
But not manipulated or slow or forced
But easy and with a natural flow

Words can be powerful if used properly
And they can be forever etched in time
Poetry can be bold and beautiful and it
Can be presented with or without rhyme

But no matter if it’s fantasy or of religious
Tone or of a good love gone bad
It can be silly or sensitive and obviously
It can be of something happy or sad

And for the complicated and intellectual
One can write in the form of spoem
But that’s the true beauty of
The Essence Of A Poem
