This piece is called “Poet Tree”. The purpose of this piece is to describe what poetry is for. I included this piece because it describes how I use and what I use poetry for. The content of this piece makes me proud because it expresses how I feel. I realized that I use poetry for more than just an outlet, I also write it for fun and as a hobby.
Tears you shed
Smiles you had
Times you were happy or sad
Memories both good and bad
Setting goals
Food for the soul
The key to the heart
In many lives it plays a huge part
Things we believe
The emotions we receive
When you need someone to talk to
When you need someone to listen to you
Poetry doesn’t have to be perfect
Every piece of the puzzle doesn’t have to fit
