An average poet tells of feelings.
Using their mind, heart, small words of delight,
A better poet delivers dealings.
Using their soul, agility in height,
Lines that flow sweet, caressing complete thought,
Expressing deep interventions of words,
Delivering gracious notions of what,
Readers shall receive something afterwards.

Sometimes winning, then at others losing,
They each plan their lines for some reaction.
Taking time, design lines to their choosing.
Sharing thoughts, moods, wisdom, meaningfully,
We strive to broach verse, dramatically.
