I once wrote a two word poem, but incorporated the title to tie things together. This was on a site with a lot of professional poets and novelists. I thought I would be lambasted. Instead, everyone loved it. Poetry is an art form. It can be whatever you want it to be, regardless of length.
Thankyou Adamgray. They were both just a simple piece of minimalism. When the concept arose to me they provoked quite powerful thoughts. Sometimes less can be more, and have a greater affect on the reader. I am glad you were able to draw something from it. Thankyou again for your comments.

Well, you've taken minimalism to a new level. ;)

It doesn't matter how slow
Er... I'm affraid it's too too short to be a poem. Even a modern one. I may be wrong
It doesn't matter how slow you go, as long as you don't stop

Sorry
Sorry, it just didn't work with me. I am also a professional poet, if you wanted to know, so take care with that ;)

Simplicity
A tool never so well utilized.
To brief to be a poem, too deep to be nothing.
Perhaps in the loneliness of its own words it is both

I like this one the same way I liked the the one about the sun. Are they poems? Don't know. But they are powerful.
