What is a Poem?
A poem is a present.
You give it to yourself.
Find one in a dusty book
Nestled on your shelf.
Find one in a face
Of a person you don’t know.
Feel one on a windy day.
Hear a poem blow.
See a poem in a mouse.
Watch a poem run.
Smell a breakfast poem
When morning offers sun.
You may think a poem
Is always made of words.
But poem can be chocolate.
Poems can be bird.
Poems can be secrets
Or shouts upon the air.
A poem is a present
Hiding everywhere.
