Listening to every heart

Poets Make Things Happen

We birth
We feed
We live and die
Sharing stories

Needing
Giving
Caring

On the wind
Words
Are colorless

Fine words
Are
Never-ending

I am, therefore,
You,
And you,
And you

While still me

I, as you,
Am either young
Or old
Perhaps
In-between

I, as you,
Am
Mother father
Sister brother

a link to yesterday
a hope for tomorrow

I, as you,
Grow cold
Or warm

Experience pain
Or joy

Love, and
Laugh

It matters not
My creed
or Religion

I am, as you are

a Poet

We can change the world

One word
At a time

It all begins
In our heart

Mine pumps red
As yours does

Circle me with
Your words

Circle the globe
With your words

Make
It happen

Now

And we will read you.

Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen?  Keeping in mind, I must stand close...and keep my promises...

who love....

Excellent excellent words here Karilea..
Yes, I truly agree we can change the world
one word at a time.

Now while the leaves still dance on the wind
While the moon and the clouds come spinning
Will you whisper my name again?
Again..and again.

And even if we can't change the world... sometimes we change ourselves... and the result is just as dramatic. *S*

Excellent write!!!

Hello Karilea

I applaud you for this fabulous piece of writing which we can all relate to.  How wonderful it is that we can share so much of ourselves through our love for the written word.

"A poet weaves his words
through each verse to create
a most beautiful tapestry
for us all to admire"

I'm anchored in you

It can be hard to tell, you know.....sometimes things that happen, make poets.

I wonder if they who brought us into each
other's living room realized how far it
would reach...and open the world's palms
to us all.

Thanx Sun....you are a very vital part of
the chain of communications that exists
between poets worldwide.

what a simple and delightful way of suggesting how other poets leave traces in our hearts!
