The poet’s heart beats strong with love
Exuding mercy given from heaven above
Each pulse sends out a signal true
Meant to capture the love of you

The poet’s heart is filled with compassion
Its tenderness never goes out of fashion
Always there with a listening ear
To soothe your anxiety and lessen your fear

The poet’s heart yearns for acceptance
A soul in search of man’s repentance
Capturing the essence of daily life
Helping you cope with trials and strife

The poet’s heart flows through her pen
Allowing us to believe once again
In a world so honest and pure
She gives you the courage to endure

The poet’s heart shines like the sun
You think about her when your day is done
Wondering what she’ll write that night
Casting on your path the warmest light

The poet’s heart is a fragile thing
But with patience you can make it sing
Songs filled with ancient lore
Of all those who have gone before

The poet’s heart feels your pain
She knows when inside it starts to rain
Drying your tears with her gentle hand
Always showing she understands

The poet’s heart shall live on
Even after her life is gone
For it is breathes through each word
Every one your heart has heard

The poet’s heart drifts on by
Leaving a tear in my eye
I’d give anything to see
The poet’s heart live in me


All writing comes
by the grace of God.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

(smiles) Yes, the poetic soul lives deep in everyone, it is just how we use it that matters, and never take for granted the beauty we give all of life that even when a poet passes on, her smile is as bright as the embers of the fire and lustrous as the grass! (big hugggsssssss) This is beautiful, sweet friend, you have my poetic vote, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jennifer, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Well, Hey there stranger, been awhile since we have spoken, I have missed you, we really need to catch up! LOL Jen, you are a truly gifted poet, and the last verse in this poems proves it.

"The poet’s heart drifts on by
Leaving a tear in my eye
I’d give anything to see
The poet’s heart live in me"

If that isn't pure poetry I don't know what is!

Love Ya Sis!

I think that just about covers
all the angles of a poet's heart.

Lovely, simply lovely, Lone Wolf.

When you think you have heard it all,
listen more closely.

From what I have seen of your writing here in this poem I would have to say that there is a poetic heart dwelling within you. I loved how you described the poetic spirit in this poem, it was so right on target.

Sometimes we have to follow a stronger voice, even if it's silent.
