Are 40 poems enough for a poetry book?

Well, folks, the mystery of the moment is: Are 40 poems enough for a poetry book? Well, in my humble and somewhat poetically inclined opinion, 40 poems are not just enough, they're the perfect sweet spot! It's like a symphony of words, each poem dancing around like a ballerina on the pages of your book. But remember, it's not the quantity, but the quality that makes a poetry book a riveting read. So, whether it's 40, 400 or just 4, as long as your poetry tickles the readers' hearts, you're golden!
