Poetic Balance
Some poems I've written are nonsense-i-cal
But I'm not buffoonery smitten
I've written some most common sense-i-cal
Which are not as quite dimwit-ten
Poems comprised of only levity
Should be more inclusive
A muses' work should never be
Thoughtfully exclusive
To write with just frivolity
Is like eating just desserts
Poems written with just jollity
Significance averts
This concept should be heeded
When putting pen to page
It's balance that is needed
Ask any writing sage
