Misery Leads to words/
without words it all blurs.

We feel supreme joy/
we have no need to be coy.

The ups and the downs/
we're free to be like the clonws.

We share of the scars/
we dream to the likes of Mars.

Deeper we feel the need/
be genuine, we ask - the poet's creed.

Share in the beauty of words/
we mingle in the ballroom of all nouns and verbs.

Through the verses we rise/
but not so high as to not hear the cries.

We are poets without remorse/
accept if you wish/set another course.

Be genuine/be genuine;
live the poet's creed.

I love it dear! Excellent job!

The story of my life. The beauty of poetry is that anyone can do it. It's everywhere... and there's always some kind of truth in it all.. because poetry is genuine. (as you have said) Thank you for posting this. I really enjoyed reading it.

"Deeper we feel the need/

We all sing the same song.
Beautiful work.
Enjoyed... and looking forward to more

Nik, Zu, thanks. I appreciate your words. I don't write poetry for myself, I right it for any human who cares to read. And you did, and you liked. Thanks

Titus

Find me a pidgeon, and then I'll know where Zu and Sky are.
