Food for Thought
(For your next poem)
I could have helped you here
but I dislike death poems
I have struggled years
rather decades to stay alive
there is only one life
It is my surmise
so in life
I'd positively like to rise
and
help others likewise.
I can give you a fish to eat
but rather I'd lay a net
for you to catch aplenty
so more will share
what lies within
'tis sheer poetry
all Neopoets know it
and soon you also will
Style / type:

This sounds like...
a reply to someone asking for a critique on their work. It makes a nice piece, but leaves one wondering where the inspiration comes from. ~ Gee.
.
There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

My poetic teacher once told me
so I converted it into her poetry
She did not live long enough
to reply me
lived across the HUDSON
