The Feelings Of A Poet |

The road of life we trod upon Through all our days and years Takes many turns, crooks, and curves Bringing joys, happiness, or fears With these emotions of our lives Brought to us from our day to day Some feel the desire to write of them With unique thoughts they say It seems when a poet writes Of memories of which they see Each event is seen differently And has many ways it could be Though enormous the heartaches may be Within the writers tender heart The joys are equally exuberant Of which they eagerly write a part Whether of happiness with all its joy Or of tears brought from sadness All is embraced deeply by a poet And written of with hearts gladness |

Ethel~ Can't tell you how true that is...so many memories flood my mind when I read the words of others. "sit on top of the world and tell me how you feel...'cause what you feel is what I feel for you.." |

Nicely written Ask a poet a question and a second later the answer is different, phrased differently and another image Life of a poet's words before written is 20 minutes before the new mutation. Not from the heart as the heart feeds the brain and the brain takes in every input It is from an image that all the senses bring together for a moment or 20 Dave |

Ethel? Could you take a gander at my request in the Poetry Workshop, and then let me know if I can use this? You'll understand once you read it. OK? [I'll get down on my knees if I have to, but please, that wouldn't be a pretty sight... ] |

This is a very special poem. I have a feeling it especially means a lot to you. I can feel the tenderness in each word. How deep the emotions run. Deb |
