If you could write anyone a poem, who would it be and why?

I would write a poem to my mother.  She suffers from Alzheimer’s disease and knows that she is loosing her memory.  She has loved me unconditionally since before I was born, and believe me, I was just as frustrating as a child as I am as an adult.  My wife, I love passionately, but my mother I love so very deep.  I have a hard time expressing my emotions about this in just words, but perhaps a poem might do it.

i like a poem with really deep poetic lines...something that moves me after reading it...something that could possibly change how i feel about a subject after reading it...

In your heart.  It would be way better than someone else's even if your not a regular poet, just poetically tell him what you want him to know.

I would have to say Maya Angelou. Her work is profound and I have learned alot about acceptence from reading her essays and poems. She has lead an extraordinary life and offers a strong role model for women everywhere.

I find the most beautiful poem is The Curve of Your Eyes written by Eluard:\n\nThe curve of your eyes embraces my heart\nA ring of sweetness and dance\nhalo of time, sure nocturnal cradle,\nAnd if I no longer know all I have lived through\nIt’s that your eyes have not always been mine.\n\nLeaves of day and moss of dew,\nReeds of breeze, smiles perfumed,\nWings covering the world of light,\nBoats charged with sky and sea,\nHunters of sound and sources of colour\n \nPerfume enclosed by a covey of dawns\nthat beds forever on the straw of stars,\nAs the day depends on innocence\nThe whole world depends on your pure eyes\nAnd all my blood flows under their sight.\n\nI hope you like it :-)

Nice poem by Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Now, to answer your question, between me and either of my children - no contest. They get everything.

Only you have the right to name your poems. They came from within you, dont let anyone else take a part of that away from you

The best poem is one you would write yourself. If you need help just contact me through my e-mail on my Q&A page. Here is a poem for you.\n\nIf I Never\n\nIf my days were untroubled\nAnd my heart always light\nWould I seek that fair land\nWhere there is no night?\n\nIf I never grew weary\nWith the weight of my load\nWould I search for God’s Peace\nAt the end of the road?\n\nIf I never knew sickness\nAnd never felt pain\nWould I reach for a hand\nTo help and sustain?\n\nIf I walked not with sorrow \nAnd lived without loss\nWould my soul seek sweet solace\nAt the foot of the cross?\n\nIf all I desired was mine\nDay by Day\nWould I kneel before God\nAnd earnestly pray?\n\n\n\nIf God sent no “Winter”\nTo freeze me with fear\nWould I yearn for the warmth\nOf “Spring” every year?\n\nI ask myself this . . .\nAnd the answer is plain\nIf my life were all pleasure\nAnd I never knew pain.\n\nI’d seek God less often\nAnd need him much less\nFor God’s sought more often \nIn times of distress\n\nAnd no one knows God\nOr sees him as plain\nAs those who have met Him\nOn the Pathway of Pain

Great question, I never though of that.I am going to have to say Jesus. I think He feels sadness when one of us goes astray. i think we will be to busy rejoicing otherwise.
