Poetry

Kim Spivey 1957 (New York)

Poetry is wonderful, the rhythm and the rhyme.

Very interesting words that stimulate the mind.

Sadness, joy, and humor, to name a few.

Are some of the emotions poetry can bring out in you.

It can take you to worlds you've never explored.

Some places unnerve you, and others adored.

Open your mind to poetry, see things through other's eyes.

You may be delighted or even surprised.
