What is a poem? of what is it made?
Is it something that's written or something that's said?
The questions I'm posing of posey
In bloom
Is a brief exposition of what is a poem?

A poem, like the following content conveyed, is also created.
Poetry's'  made!

A poem is a seed, buried in earth,
When dead giving life to a tree in its birth!
A poem is a tree, with branches array, where the birds from their flight seek rest from the day!
A poem is a breeze that carries a tide, giving breath to the leaves, and giving us flight!
A Poem is the sky, where the breeze, and the day, and the night, and the planets, and stars go to play!
A poem if you look for a moment reveals, where mystery's shrouded, and destiny seals!
You, and your family, kitty and dog, chipmunks, and walruses, lizards and frogs
Are poems, so are homes, and windows and beds, the moonbeams and rainbows and dreams in our heads.
A poem is eternity cast into words  The angels are anvils. The gavel is God's!
And Jesus the highest of heavenly hosts
The Logos and only one poetry boasts
Is fashioning everything master of poets!
