10. Why Poetry?

My grandpa read to me

poems he wrote

when i was a kid.

A teacher read to me

poems in school

she loved poetry. 

I looked at someone

my first love at school

I uttered poetry. 

As i grew up and learned

inside i burned

I read poetry. 
I saw the poetry

of life, death and all between.

Your whole life is full of poems

you know the words

all you have to do

is listen!
