A poem is beautiful, It can be anything that you wish it to be,
What lives in a poem,? Imagination of the wondering mind.
It can take you away, a vacation of choice to anywhere out there,
A dream that lives inside, written words that greatly describe.
What lives in a poem are the memories you carry around always,
Sad happenings of realistic times, happy, wonderful things that define.
Your thoughts and all that makes you whom you are,
To write, too make that what lives in a poem come alive.
What lives in a poem can be any place you want to be,
You can go anywhere, write a fantasy life or live a dream.
What lives in a poem is the real you and all that you see.

I adore this poem, it epitomises the nature of poetry in such a beautiful way.
You hit the mark Keith! What lives in a poem is what we are and what we thought we could be. 🙂 Very good write my friend.
Thanks so much, i went to attorney today, stressful.
Oh I hope it turned out right for you Keith.Remember to live life one day at a time… 😉
I know, it’s going to be difficult. People turn their backs on you. I’m alright.
Oh, not everybody Keith, you must know that.You have your family.
At times maybe, that’s not true so much
I will not argue with you on that coz afterall I don’t know the real score, you do. But I know you are not alone in your battle, there is God above all else and your family, some of them I guess. And I will be here to listen.
The attorney was great, she asked me about me. i told her about writing and other things. she wants to read to see what i think about.
That’s good…Let her read it. Your poems are good and very emotional.
So very true, a poem can be about anything and take you anywhere…it is up to the soul that sees and then creates. Nice job, love it!
