A poem

A poem,

What is a poem?

Its not more or less than,

Silent music.

Words arranged

In malleable silent rhythm.

I knew none about assonance,

But I knew well not to write nonsense.

Every body connects to what makes sense.

I may have verses without consonance,

But I pack sense in every sentence.

Delivering phrases making sense

Making excellence my essence.

With so much benevolence

 And less ambivalence.

Re-arranging 

Deranged

Minds.

A poem

Ever thought?

Poems make our anthems.

Filled with rhythms.

Read it silently.

It sounds differently

It makes much more sense.

Listen! The sounds they convey.

Some showing the way,

Some leading astray.

Its the beat.

Dance to it but

Don't lose your feet.

Poetry is music.

Poetry is.

Poetry.

Poems.

Are made of,

Of words dancing,

Dancing on paper,

Birthed by ink,

Through minds

That think.

It can make you sink,

 Sink In the ocean of thoughts

It can make you think,

Think of the forgotten past

It can make you drink.

Drink the cup of knowledge

It can make you see,

See the future in prophecy.

The blinks of the eyes are the gaps between words.

The inks of the pens are the doors to distant worlds.

The thinks of the minds are the shades of light

Given bodies by the wise writers.

Words are keys when played right they can be danced to.

Words are keys when said right they unlock realities.

Words are what makes a poem. poems make

Believe, believing creates possibilities

Possibilities weaken difficulties

Poetry taught me this.

I never felt alone

With a papyrus and a pen.

I simply let my mind open.

My fingers translate.

As I contemplate

Like a poet.

Love pen and paper

These two are good listeners

And great recorders.

Thoughts scattered haphazardly

Are clustered melodically 

In union forged by 

the young sages.

Never under estimate

The power of a poem.

Poetry is my totem

Never undermine 

The power of a poet.

They shape our thinking.

Always mess with poetry.

Its better than drugs.

Can get you hugs.

Love poetry.

Your poetry.

What has rhythm and subtle sounds?

A poem.
