A poem should be vast
As a star grazing the night sky
Deep
Enough for the angler to shine his light
Endless
As the clock slowing in class
Boundless
As the hero on a Saturday cartoon
*
A poem should be imaginative
As the wind blows the unending blue
Leaving behind images in clouds
Battleships and unicorns continue their shaping lives
Memories try to take hold
But something new steals its place
A poem should be imaginative
As the wind blows the unending blue.
*
A poem should be:
Gentle
For the lion and lamb
Cradled with protection and a soft smile
For heart
A stretch of muscles that make you feel renewed
A poem should not mean
Fear.
