Thus is a “Poet”.... ....remaining blessed or cursed with a grand-fine heart of magnificent fragility, far too easily lost to rain or tears.... ....remaining love’s stranger just beyond the horizon of ‘never-quite-seen’, as a spectral silhouette fading in a broken dream.... ....remaining hopelessly incredulous as to why men are folding up the sky, for hanging in corporate halls to Nature’s inestimable chagrin.... ....remaining an unanchored spirit lost and forever adrift, (in the depths of words unwritten) where comets weep, and galaxies dance over ruined mountains by starlight, to the music and mystery of "Deep-Time's" eternal schemes.... ....a “Poet” is thus! * PLEASE CONSIDER ACCEPTING MY FINAL "POETRY CHALLENGE!': /pip/Forum7/HTML/000729.html THANK YOU so much!

. A poet is a failure whom everyone admires after he’s dead . |

beautiful and it is true. Poet has special character and does have his own special world. a pure, ideal kingdom where everything has a voice. and your poem is very romantic, very romantic. enjoyed. |

Poets.... so romantic are they... and this poem captures the true light of a poet... Society may see poets as failures... only remembered after death... but I am sure that within each of us who write... we reach great accomplishments, just by expressing a though like no other person can... I love it!! Jen--->MindBodySoul |

Just revisiting this work again, one of many times. Realized I hadn't posted a comment to tell you how very fine I think it is. It just takes my breath away. I'd say "I especially like..." but, I love it all! |
