A didactic poem is one that is instructional where the poet expects the reader to learn skills, science, philosophy, love, crafts, etc. I wrote one the other day, actually, in typical Erika form: because I was feeling it randomly while sitting at my desk at work; I jotted it down. It is in a modified form of an acrostic poem, but I think it works in this instance as well.
Trust Me
Trust is
Responsibility
Us people
Saddle ourselves with
To not be taken lightly.
Trust is telling the truth
Regardless of the situation for the
Utmost respect from those we love.
Sometimes it's harder
Than lying, but necessary for ourselves and those we love.
Trust is tough, but
Real. And
Until you trust, you won't know the full
Scope of
True love.
