Every style matters and deserves to be shared.

I just have to find the ones that suit me. Sometimes it is the way the words flow and sometimes it is the content and sometimes both. Very interesting thoughts that you have shared with us about poetry.

And I think that 'Rhyming poetry' was of course the general form in earlier days as the poetry of my great-grandfather and great-uncle. But poetry is much more than rhymes and it depends on the words and expressiveness. <br />Loved your words, dear friend!<br />Love,<br />Gert Gert W.
