what is the best poem

Best poem 1998 (Harrison)



The best poem ever,
What could it be?
Some say it's the sonnets of Shakespeare,
Others prefer Wordsworth's poetry.

But to me, the best poem ever,
Is the one that touches the heart,
That fills you up with emotions,
And leaves an impact, right from the start.

It doesn't matter the poet's fame,
Or whether the words rhyme,
As long as it speaks to your soul,
And takes you on a journey through time.

The best poem ever is subjective,
And can change with each passing day,
But its power remains unchallenged,
To move us in a beautiful way.

So here's to the poets of the world,
Who bring us joy and tears,
Thank you for sharing your souls,
And for making the best poem ever, year after year.
