The extent of thoughts
When placed on a page,
Can determine their
Accessibility to others.

Some folks don't like
Poems that are too long.
Yet brevity can be too short,
And lose the readers interest.

The content, long or short,
Is what captivates the reader.
Be interesting or informative,
And your poem will have a long life.
