Poetry is hard


I sit in front of my computer screen.
The screen is blank, no words appear on it.
If I do not finish the task for seen,
My teacher says that I just might get hit.
I think and think but nothing comes to mind.
The screen stares back at me with not a word.
I could not find the words to say each line.
Its time I should just pray to the lord.
Right then the thought came into my bright mind,
I’ll write about how I cannot write this.
And as I finish this I finish this I will resign
From writing poems because this is no bliss.
I now know how hard poetry can be,
I will leave it to the poets with a degree.
