A poem tells a story.
It allows people to express themselves.
Ideas, opinions, thoughts, feelings,
they can be put on paper.
Some people can't get themselves noticed, though.
Poetry can be a way of life.
You can about almost anything,
and if the right words are chosen,
you can have people wondering about who or what it's about.
Even a simple statement like this can be a poem.
Allow your mind to open up,
make yourself be seen.
