Perfect Poem

How does one pen the perfect poem?

with harmonious and captivating flow.

inviting the reader in with consequential hopes.

leaving them with a smile or inspiring them to their next great idea.

I don't know, but that is how poetry goes.

What style shall the poet present?

Pastoral or a Sonnet?

Soliloquy or free verse?

The next great Villanelle?

Do not go gently and so forth.

I don't know, but that is how poetry goes.

Does one write for self-fulfilment?

or motivationally efficacious for the audience?

Painting pictures of dreamscapes in minds you will never understand.

That is quite grand.

I need no reasons only a spark

to show this poet's heart.

the words may never be perfect.

Just little pieces of me for the world to read.

That is my perfect poem.
