A poet deals not in competition Nor to gain great self-gratification It is more as a means of exposing Of sending forth a personal meaning We must avoid eliciting falsehoods To sway the multitude with our goods Our words are not at all man made wonders And sometimes arranged to avoid blunders A rewarding writing will somehow show That the reader sees where our thought did go Each person deciphers as words are read We do hope you'll realize what each word said I certainly hope that I made this clear I even grouped couplets, like these two here |

For you've done what need say be for the art of poetry as in all rhyme we find the note by reading what the author wrote self-gratification? in just your smile; it's what I wanted, all the while... |

I agree with everything here also. Maybe you could get it posted as a poet's creed. Good work. |

I am so pleased that you liked this for just trying to say what we are. It has always been easy for me to write words in rhyme. The important part though, is to try and make each group chime. The greatest reward is when people understand your offering. Thank you all from the absolute bottom of my heart - The Poetic Plumber - or Rog PS: I love the plumbing jabs [This message has been edited by thepoeticplumber (01-11-2002 09:22 PM).] |
