Poet...

I come to this world
With a rainbow point of hue, or view-

I am a poet:
Grateful and filled,
Like a bag full of grapes
With tasty, sumptuous
Ideas and treats.

I am a poet:
I dance, you see
Upon the words I play,
Bubbly child
Blurts out feelings
To keep me from being
Too serious, you see-
Hints of childhood
Embrace me.





I am a poet:
Love drops come,
Speak through me,
Every word that I utter
Is not of this world
But a place I visit
Quite frequently.

I am a poet:
In partnership with love's simplicity.
If the words you see
Spark feelings of anger, confusion-
Remember I am only a messager.
Feel the words deeply
To see what is
Under them or not�

I am a poet:
I am in service to love.
I give to you
Pieces of me
I never knew.




I am a poet:
Heart yearns love
And to see soft
Beats of laughter
Through the crack
In your smile.

I am a poet:
My love is my poetry.
Deeply I stare at beauty
Everywhere and nowhere.
I am what I am.
I am a poet.
