What Poetry Means to Me

May 25, 2010

Poetry is the magic in my pencil

my night light in the dark

it is the power of my will

it is the reason why dogs bark

it is the reason why we are all smart

it is the power of all art

it doesn’t have to rhyme

it doesn’t cost a dime

it depends on emotion

for all this writing commotion

now you can see

what poetry means to me
