The Process of Publicizing My Poem

Step 1: Writing the PoemOne Does Not Need Much

One does not need much,

When a forest of books towers

Over their heads.

One does not need much,

When elves and pixies

Dance and hop around their feet.

One does not need much,

When Cinderella, Jack and Thumbelina

Come to life while

Drinking a cup of tea

With the crazy hatter.

One does not need much,

When a pleasurable silence

Deafens one’s ears.

One does not need much,

When they watch a princess toss and turn

Upon a single,

Green pea.

One does not need much,

When they watch little dwarves

Build the perfect shoe

And a beanstalk come to life

Underneath a full moon.

Inside a library,

One does not need much,

When a forest of books towers

Over their heads.
