What a Nice Surprise

The Poem I Never Wrote and You Didn’t Read

A poem that never came out of my pen

Even now, as I sit typing to you. I can’t help but appreciate the words still unspoken.

I’m not even sure what I’m doing it for. What’s the point of writing anymore? If this is as good as I can do. It means that’s what my poems are worth. In other words, they’re not worth a damn thing. But somehow, here we are, typing away at each other like we’re trying to convene with ghosts or something. And even though there’s nothing left in me to impart onto these keys, I keep typing anyway. And you keep typing back. Okay, so maybe I’m putting out an effort here, a maniacal amount of work But you know what?

It’s worth it. Because you’re a ghost, and this is our meeting. And every time we exchange a sentence or two, I get to see your face. I get to see the expression on your face and hear your voice. Every time I hear your voice, I feel like you’re right here with me. It’s like we’re back at the beginning, doing our thing at the same time. We’re back then, with every bit of motivation we had before. And if that’s not worth something, then what is? Anything that answers questions like that needs to be accepted by me and you for what it is: value itself.

A ghost meets a poet on the internet. The idea of nature in poetry is not fully understood by all poets. They believe that to write a good poem, they must have a theme related to nature. For example, nature’s environmental and physical state. Some poets believe in nature because of its beauty and sweetness. While others believe in nature because of its importance to their lives.

The poet’s writing style also contributes to the title of a poem. Some poets like to use alliteration and rhyme, while others tend to use figurative language or precise diction.

Regardless of the poem type, it only takes one good idea or a single line that catches your eye to make the entire work worth reading.
