Intent is not better than sound
when a quatrain is being solved
with so many constraints involved
just finding the words is profound.

All can know what the poet meant
when rhyme and some reason combine
however when the poem’s mine
sound is better than my intent.

When it’s sublime the real content
means its sound and sounds very good
with no chance it’s misunderstood
all can know what the poet meant.
Lynne
When poets want their views to rhyme
we search for words that mean much more
for meter and sound count before
the content can take on sublime.Lynne
Bad poetry always ensues
when hatred and love are topics
but strong emotions are top picks
when poets want to rhyme their views.
Lynne
Thoughts are better left un-pursued
when I find tears and beer and wine
mixed in with sad, sad drops of whine
for bad poetry will ensue.
Lynne
Words that still leave you confused do
not read as well on white paper
as they sound to the word shaper
and are better left un-pursued.
