Does Poetry More Fulfill Your Mind

If in thy youth were made to find
poetry more fulfilled your mind
than machinations or the rest
consider your soul doubly blest.
So let us not speak ill of verse
recite each line, rehearse, rehearse!
Do words flow smooth like in a dream
or struggle hard to swim upstream?
When writing do poems seem to drown
when reading tumble to the ground;
just rhyme these two words, light and bright,
and everything will be alright.
The finer themes that lift the scene
the ocean blue, the forest green
but, if sensitivities lack,
it's okay to compose in black.
Let's mix a cauldron full of verse
add love, prayer, a little curse
then strip the finished product bare
with plays of Shakespeare to compare.
The sweeping rhymes that end the line,
the anapests that drill to time,
if these techniques you do possess
consider your soul triple blessed!
Then edit, check and check some more
for all your heart you did outpour.
The end.
