I'm Mostly Influenced By Life, What's Around

We All Need Ways To Express Ourselves, And Poetry Is One Of Mine.

It's Halloween! It's Halloween! The Moon Is Full And Bright And We Shall See What Can't Be Seen On Any Other Night. Skeletons And Ghosts And Ghouls, Grinning Goblins Fighting Duels Werewolves Rising From Their Tombs, Witches On Their Magic Brooms In Masks And Gown We Haunt The Street And Knock On Doors For Trick Or Treat Tonight We Are The King And Queen, For Oh Tonight It's Halloween!

Otherwise I Don't Read Much Adult Poetry At All, Because I'm Not Smart Enough And Mostly I Don't Get It.

The Ballpoint Penguins, Black And White, Do Little Else But Write And Write. Although They've Nothing Much To Say, They Write And Write It Anyway.

Poetry Seems To Sink Into Us The Way Prose Doesn't. I Can Still Quote Verses I Learned When I Was Very Young, But I Have Trouble Remembering One Line Of A Novel I Just Finished Reading.
