Poems, like people, come in all shapes and sizes, so I think that these statements could be considered poems, because you are writing and sharing your ideas with others.

HaHa, I do not consider these to be poems since I use these statements in conversation. I posted them on this website because it helps me share my ideas in concise,literary form.

Even though this is not an extremely long poem, the message is very strong and ties into the idea that as poets, we are continuously seeking more knowledge and imparting our wisdom onto others.
