POEM: Poets’ Prizes
This was created for the CPC monthly Meet & Greet poetry party for new Pals.
POETS’ PRIZES
Poetry’s the thing, you see,
a bridge between both you and me.
A way to voice the things we feel
which other methods can’t reveal.
A line of rhyme expresses much
which conversation cannot touch.
A monologue so personal
yet may reveal the universal.
Rewards for he or she who dives
into the core of their own lives
find revelation’s useful read
helps separate the chaff from seed.
Thus, on rereading, come to grips
with compass points to steer their ships,
or halt before it is too late
to fall beneath the hands of fate.
