    Poem Commentary

    This is another piece I found from freshman year, we had been working on sonnets during that time.

    Sweet Goodness

     I have all I need
    I need all I have
    Here and there, bags and reeds
    Over far, bricks and staffs
    It is all I could ever want
    Many a time I went without
    Now I have much to make one gaunt
    Loss of little makes one pout
    A mansion full of magic wonder
    Candy, toys, pets, and such
    The more I have, the more I ponder
    Does it pay to have so much?
    Always a want, never a need
    No reward for so much greed

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
