The Poet Days

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

These are the days
gifted to the poet,
days that conjure words
and everyone will know it,
plant the inspiration
we will watch you grow it

swollen with sunshine,
wildflower picking,
the cool breeze muffles
the clock tock ticking,
dewy morning grass
on bare feet sticking

days of perfect weather,
nights of love and harmony,
how the words just come together,
"Poet, share what you see!"

The poet days...gifted, free-
I'm blessed that your gift is given to me.

It's not hard to see
that any PiP member
or reader, is gifted,
daily.

Thank you, Dixie...

You know, I think one should never post a pastoral picture with a poem, `cause the words can never match the beauty,

it`s like this poetry program, a woman was reading poetry aloud in the nature, and the river was singing beneath her feet,

and made her words ugly and superfluous...

yes, those are the best writing moments along with those not so beautiful...but that is the poet's fate and gift. a sweet way to start my morning.

I liked the way you alluded to nature when describing poetry-Great comparison.
Very Enjoyable poem.

Dixie darlin...

You have done remarkably with this poem....
It should inspire a whole bunch of pens,
quills, inkwells and last but not least....

poets!
