Points to Ponder

AS YOU READ MY POEMSYou''re my audience of one.I hope to hold you captiveFrom the moment you''ve begun. But alas it''s for you to decideIf staying is worth your while.Will you decide I bore youOr will you like my style? Perhaps the subjects coveredWill draw you back againCurious to see what truths I seeIn the rhymes that I have penned. These are but lessons I have learnedMany that I feel should not be spurned.You may applaud or disagreeAnd without repercussion take issue with me. I beg you to enter with an open mindTaking time to think through and digest.Discard what to you does not applyBut linger o''er what you deem best. And if there''s but one you can pass along ''Twill serve to fill my heart with song.
