Intro to Writing Poetry (HU)

 I Envision Something New

Many forms I found.

Many ways I created.

My words have changed

all the different ways

I see, feel, and hear.

You thought me iambic,

to play with words sounds

to count up to ten syllables,

to write in fancy form,

and to free myself on paper.

Normal things are gone

and a new perception

of them has born in place

as Mr. Wade would say:

it’s just a poetic form.

I envision something different

but I don’t want to know it

Instead this new language will

show it, in its elegant form

of the poetic language.
