The word poem is a very distinct word giving a sensation of a mellow feel. Poems include a vast variety of words but more high vocabulary terms are commonly used in poetry. Poems,in a way, sounds like musical lyrics in a way. It is a type of music that does not really need an instrumental background but can independently handle itself such as acapella. It can be a song in the way of the rhythm. How a poem can run so smoothly is like music in itself. I have written a poem before, in middle school, had it published as well.
