A Necessity for Rhymes?



A poem is a poem,
No need to say more.
They are not strictly
Ryhming or free of form.
There is always a rhythm,
Though many do not always see.
Repition is as common
As letting the rhythm run free.
There could never be another
Sea of words that wish to be
One another's company. They
are forever apart but always close to
Heart as art is to the human's
Creativity. A poem is a poem, it
Needs not rules. Other than
We should vaguely understand
What words you consider yours.
