What I enjoy with the poets,
they can be big or small,
good or bad, sad or happy,
they can be  black or white,
poor men or rich,
I notice an evidence,
they are all broad-minded...

Hopefully so! Thank you, dear Yann, for stressing this important quality! The poet listens and indeed for doing so he needs to be broad- open-minded.

A perfect reminder ...

Love,
Margherita

I think you are right, for the most part, yann, I think in order to be a good poet one must be somewhat open minded.

I enjoyed your poem, Yann, and agree with every line, except the last one.  In my opinion, most are open-minded, but many are not broad-minded - but that's just my opinion.

Thank You Owl for the precision, I will have to think about it... Open minded; broad minded, thank you for the subtlety...
Your comments are very welcomed.
