Excerpts

Poems - by Nancy Ellen McLennan

Poems are but thoughts
With words between
We poets cannot say
The truths we mean
So lay down lines and punctuate
And keep it clean
Of what we sense and know
And only dream
Page 107, added by brandonph.

Poems are accessible and are within all of us. This is an example of the light-hearted nature of poems
