The Forest Of Thought

Deep in the forest of thought,

I find myself thinking aloud.

Words are like leaves of a tree

Though much unlike are they.

 

A word can paint a picture

In the readers mind.

Sometimes it can be quaint

And misleading, if the poet chooses.

 

But confusing the reader

Is the last thing a poet

Wishes to do when writing.

Letting him guess the intent is OK.

While intricate, tangled word poems may enthrall the literary elite, it is always the simple, straightforward and easily understandable poems that have become classics that everyone knows the lines to. Who knows? Perhaps one of your straightforward poems will catch on like wildfire across the Internet and someday become another one of those classic gems that everyone remembers and recites.
