I want to write a poem
I search for a theme,
and strong words to match,
i need a rhyme scheme,
my head i scratch
i want to write a poem
how do poets manage
to create those lovely pieces,
with verses that are in tandem
and a tone that pleases?
i want to write a poem
i have often tried,
but success i’ve never had,
the lines never signified,
what was running in my mind
now, i want to write a poem
there is no room for error,
things must fall into place,
should i write of the war on terror
or life’s constant rat race?
i want to write a poem
poetry is complicated,
an art that is hardly easy
perhaps it isn’t my cup of tea,
i really do prefer coffee
how i wish i could write a poem
I am no poet. This is my first stab at writing poetry. The subject of the poem is me and it is inspired by my own story. Let me know what you think. Also, I have been posting quite a bit recently. So do go through the other entries and comment there too. Peace!
Who said you cannot write poems?
I also want to add this commenting procedure is more complicated than even poetry!
