Can't Compose A Poem

I cannot compose a poem for the sake of contest

It has to have a meaning or some context

The words got to sing hand in hand

Not just a heap like slipping grains of sand

It must speak of what I was or is or may be soon

But in my thoughts are neither love nor moon

It should have some message or massage some pain

Speak about tears or rivers or rain

What a poem it would be touching no heart

Like a feeble arrow missing center of the dart

This one is just enough good, next time will be best

I spilled and gathered some words that have come to rest.

Because today I cannot write a poem for the sake of contest!
