Ode…

When I first started reading this poem, my mind wasn’t clear.  I was thinking of all the “rules” that a poem should have.  Not that there are many, but I wasn’t thinking that someone could write something about the simplest things and yet make it almost complicated!  I didn’t enjoy it as much as I had others, but I did think it was an interesting difference.  There are a ton of things to write about in life, and I think it teaches us that.  Too many people think that we have to pick a topic on love, or heartache, or stress/hard times.  I’ve learned it doesn’t even have to be something going on in life, it doesn’t have to make sense to other people, it’s like a private diary entry and the only thing that matters is that you can relate to it as the writer and that you are interested.
