RE: The Poet's Voice

The poets needn't speak with their voices, seeing that they've spoken so clearly and decisively with their feet.

RE: The Poet's Voice

The poet's voice
Echoes joy
And sheds tears
The poet's voice
Reaches depths
That most fear
The poets voice
Has it's say
For today
And tomorrow
Will never change
The poet's voice

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
