A Poem Must Be Written One Line At A Time...

A poet who writes poems one line at a time, Whether he's paid cash or won't get a dime? Whether he's rich or poor, know that I'm A poet who writes poems one line at a time! A poem must be written one line at a time, Whether it leads to a difficult climb! Whether its grammar is kept in its prime, A poem must be written one line at a time! A poem can be cherished one line at a time, Whether thought precious, profound or sublime! Whether in prose, in free verse or rhyme, A poem can be cherished one line at a time! Denis Martindale, for the 2nd of May 2025.
