A poem is a piece of writing that uses words in special ways. A poem has a particular rhythm and often uses rhyming words also. People enjoy poems for their sound and their images, not just for their meaning. People who write poems use them to tell how they feel or to describe something in a different or beautiful way.
Do you know this little poem? "Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight."Sometimes Josh likes to write long and serious poems, but other times, he likes to write short and silly ones.
