"Write a poem that gives directions on how to do something"
_______________________________________
You think you know it all
Till you decide to put it down
And you end up staring at the wall
While your face takes on a frown
Knowing to do is one thing
Writing it down is another
It is easier to do something
But giving directions is a bother
You start to write it out
Then you're stuck in between
Plagued by a many a doubt
For what you write is not what you mean.
'How to..do is just a list
Of how to do anything
To give a succinct yet clear gist
teaching others something
Yet it is so tough to tell
Something that is easy to do.
Something that you do so well
Yet unable to let others know
