Poetry is like a song

Poetry is like a song,

A song without the sound,

Songs help me get a long

With the beating that comes around.

Poetry helps me calm down

Beause it takes my mind off things.

Things that are in my town,

Which is pretty much everything.

When my grandfather died,

Poetry also helped ease it.

I felt like I had to hide,

Until I wrote a little bit.

It kept going and going,

I knew I coldn't stop.

Until the day that I am easy-going,

Boy, when will that thought drop.

Poetry helps ease my mind;

Always until the end of time.
