The Candy Cane of Poetry
Why write, if only to please the masses?
Are you an addict for comments only
from positive-prone classes?
Must everything be, oh Lord, so
uplifting?
Life, as we know it, can be harsh and
most twisting!
Allow each poet complete freedom
to express their souls.
I do mean freedom, no limits, should
be our goal.
No repressive-mass antics, against
anyone’s semantics.
Be they too religious, you please refrain
from rude antics.
No man or woman here is a Big Hero
for speaking their truth.
That should be for any poet, normal,
and a given, forsooth!
When you reply, it shows you have
a poet’s true heart.
But do not become a replier only!
Tis then you lost a true poet’s art.
Christmas Day is almost here.
Write, do write poetry and be so effusive,
Part two, on spreading your Christmas
to all the best of cheer!
