Compromising Differences

You write such deep, creative poems

that I cannot conceptualize,

with fancy words, alliterate

or criticize and castigate--

you like to get a “rise.”

I write about the simple things,

within these do hypothesize

the niceties that we all see--

a garden path, a turning tree,

with me there’s no surprise.

  

Each makes a choice poetically

and one may like to theorize

we’re different to a fair degree,

but there’s no animosity

our common link is poetry--

that’s how we compromise.
