What is poetry
but words on paper
It may not rhyme
It may not flow
But perhaps tell of something long ago

Is it poetry
Though no story may it tell
No moral may it bring
Or picture may it show

What is poetry
For never is it the same
And yet never completely different either

Why is it poetry
Always picked apart
Tried to make of meaning
It never meant to be

What is poetry
But thoughts written down
A memory in ink

Can it be poetry
If it has no standard

Then why tell me are there rules for poetry
a poem about poetry

poetry is free and has no standards, though many think there are
