A good poem to me

A good poem to me

A Poem by Latrice Young

A good poem to me is , a slip-of-a-thing,

It celebrates language and the knowledge it brings.

It takes you on a short journey and touches your heart,

That's written down on paper, then turned into art.

It turns on your imagination, or tickles your funny bone somewhere along the way,

bringing light to shine through or maybe makes someones day.

A good poem to me is a blind date with enchantment,

Leaving a new world to wonder, as if your wish was granted

A good poem to me, must possess perfect verbs and no superfluous words,

when you find a good poem like that, it deserves to be heard.

A good poem to me makes, you feel like you've been there before,

It takes you to a city, to the sea, beyond what the eyes can see, a

play ground of imagination, beyond you and me.

A good poem to me, you can see it, taste it, you belong to it,

a good poem to me is a menagerie of craft, with spinning of sound to it.

your word choice, a alliteration of rhythm and often rhyme,some good

poems like this is often hard to find.

A good poem to me creates a world somehow, that touches the reader, Planting a seed of

knowledge hoping it goes deeper.

A good poem to me, awakens your inner soul, allowing you to see,

touch, hear, and experience, tapping into the mind, of the poet's brilliance.
