Dad (first poem ever)

by Robert Long   Jan 16, 2018


i love my dad
with all my heart
i just wish i had
more time with him

id spend it all
doing right
i wish he was small
but had his might

my dad is so cool
he is like a bright jewel
he is like a dictionary
he is never ordinary
he tries not to show his pain
and sometimes hes insane

first poem i ever wrote and this is the first and only ever published...i kept it in its normal form in memory of my dad
i was young so please don't be too hard on criticism
also decided to make this my 30th poem since its a special poem and this will mark the most I've ever submitted online so its special "event" as well

    I liked this. I especially liked the fact that you changed nothing within the poem itself and i think that is what makes it special. On a side note, i find is funny that it seems like everyone's first poem is some kind of rhyming one.
