We Gain Knowledge

poem by: Ronell Warren Alman
Written on Mar 19, 2018

We gain knowledge 
When we open our minds 
Education is where it's at 
Everything is there on the line 
We learn as much as we can
In order to prosper
Information is then retained 
So we have something valuable to offer

Hi Rondel, I believe this is good poem with the message it contains. In the last two lines you appeared to have inadvertently changed the tense of the verb in the line "information is... change the verb "information can be..." to go along with the tense of the rest of the poem. This will not change the meaning of the poem just help it flow better. the last line could be "something valuable offered. The syllable count for this poem should probably be 7 syllables per line because most of the line counts are 7. It is very easy to do just add subtract or change the various words so each line count come out to be 7. Best regards, K River
