The first thing a poet must remember is that the lyrical poem is intended to be sung. This means that the poet should always keep in mind the melody of the song and how it affects the meaning of his words. For example, if the poet wants to express that a girl is beautiful, he should do so in a way that will not be misinterpreted when read aloud. A girl who reads "I love you" can never hear herself say it! Therefore, a poet must be careful not to write any words that could be misunderstood when read out loud. The second thing a poet must remember is that the lyrical poem is intended for entertainment.
