Below are two poems
about malice and hate. Although I am more inclined to writing love poems, I
have decided to juxtapose these poems in order to receive your feedback about
them. I wrote one and a professional poet the other. Indicate the one you
prefer after reading by commenting below the post. Please feel free to link

A
Poison Tree
I was angry with my friend;
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I watered it in fears,
Night & morning with my tears:
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night.
Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine.
And into my garden stole,
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning glad I see;
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I watered it in fears,
Night & morning with my tears:
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night.
Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine.
And into my garden stole,
When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning glad I see;
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.
MALICE
The
first malicious hype;
I
realized your type.
Decided
to hold on to the hot pipe
And
plead when the time is ripe,
But
discarded it cause it wasn’t a healthy recipe.
The
pleading went down well, cause you chirped
And
went on to blow loud your vocal pipe,
And
proved that all malice has been wiped.
It’s
the second time,
You’ve
introduced your
Poisonous
hype,
But
now you won’t get any pleading;
Cause
I’ve left you
To
your unhealthy recipe.
