The "Poet" Tree is Blooming!!!

Our poetry is growing
We're adding more each day
The metaphors we're using
Will blow readers away!
We think of something simple
Then add music to each word
To say that we're not poets
Would just be plain absurd!
Now if you're at home thinking
Of poetic things to do
Why not take a second
And click the links I've found for you!
