The good poem

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



The good poem has a title that chimes
The good poem is the one that rhymes
The good poem has one great latch
The good poem is easy to hatch
The good poem kinda makes you cry
The good poem is about how we fly
The good poem always says goodbye
The good poem is about how hard we try
The good poem talks of unity
The good poem takes you places for free
The good poem is the one you like
The good poem is like riding a bike
The good poem makes you listen again
The good poem is sometimes to blame
The good poem makes you wonder why
The good poem will also fade
The good poem leads to where a God wades
The good poem sits you in the shade
The good poem can be sung
The good poem says come along
The good poem is bespoke
The good poem takes away the smoke
The good poem looks you in the eye
The good poem is remembered by
