I'll never be a friend of poets
My name is ever forbidden
They treat me like a verbal pariah
and keep my brightness hidden

No songs are sung to my goodness
No verses writ ‘bout my need
pining, I will always wait for
someone special to sow the seed

To find the essence of my being
To take the segments of my soul
To write about the glory of me
and somehow make me whole.

Until that time, I find my ease
alone in summer sunshine
and plot revenge upon you all
by withholding this name of mine

probably wrong here, but it could be a cliche..but a cliche isn't an object..well..depending on how you look at it! LOL!
OKAY! I know i can't guess it, but I like this anyway.

How grave is my condition, for I cannot find the words to say, I need you so.

Delightful poem, with JUST the right clues, Sharon.

Let's see. We know it starts with the letter O, and I'm guessing it's a plant (seed and summer sunshine). With segments? And if poets don't like to use the word, I'm guessing it's because there are no other words that rhyme with it?

Am I getting warm?

Sharon,

No poets' delight, so difficult to rhyme,
but sweet to the taste....an orange, Ms. deVine ?

If not, then I am completely in the dark. Loved this.

keep the name a secret

Poet deVine,
I guessed orange but juiced it, orange juice.
Well done.
