Poetic-Verses
IF POETRY IS FOR LAUGHTER
If poetry is for laughter
I might not write
Except to lift the soul
From all its plight and fight
If poetry is for laughter
I do not wish
Except to graduate the soul
From all its anguish
If poetry is for comics
Stop by it
Why should I be
So belly taught?
If poetry is for torment
I will not reach
Except for
The poor and the rich
If poetry is for comment
I shall not write
Talking too much
Is not my delight
If poetry is for gutter
Count me out
Heaven knows
I've played my part
If poetry is for wonders
I will enlist
For this is the essence
And the heat
If poetry is for trouble
I will not greet
For why should I ever
Be in it?
If poetry is for warmth
I will then reach
For its essence
Is to teach
If poetry is for gossip
I shall not pract
For why should I ever
Take such a path
If poetry is for smile
Let it smile
For the soul will no more cry
That is mild.
If poetry is for covetousness
I shall not act
For the heart then is full
Of envy and fight
I might not write
Except to lift the soul
From all its plight and fight
If poetry is for laughter
I do not wish
Except to graduate the soul
From all its anguish
If poetry is for comics
Stop by it
Why should I be
So belly taught?
If poetry is for torment
I will not reach
Except for
The poor and the rich
If poetry is for comment
I shall not write
Talking too much
Is not my delight
If poetry is for gutter
Count me out
Heaven knows
I've played my part
If poetry is for wonders
I will enlist
For this is the essence
And the heat
If poetry is for trouble
I will not greet
For why should I ever
Be in it?
If poetry is for warmth
I will then reach
For its essence
Is to teach
If poetry is for gossip
I shall not pract
For why should I ever
Take such a path
If poetry is for smile
Let it smile
For the soul will no more cry
That is mild.
If poetry is for covetousness
I shall not act
For the heart then is full
Of envy and fight
