So You Wanna Be A Poet
So you wanna to be a poet
Have a feel can’t wait to show it
It seems like there’s nothing to it
get pad and pen then just do it.
Helps that you have a heart for it
So you think you can be a poet
You got it down can't wait to show it
There are a few questions to be asked
Are you really up to the task?
Is it in you to rewrite and rewrite again
Then change the original scheme
So you got what it takes to be a poet
Your poetic sense can't wait to show it
Can you start writing inspired by a dream?
If it make little sense change in midstream
Will you listen to your innermost voice?
Over conscious thoughts about the choice
So you act like you want to be a poet
It’s in you and can't wait to show it
There’s a pad and pencil by your bed
To capture sleep inspirations in your head.
Even though it may be a single line,
It's in you to reclaim all of the times.
So you know what it takes to be a poet
You got the knack can't wait to show it
You do feel a certain responsibility?
To mine within the soul for creativity
You can color thoughts, convey emotions?
Arranging the two in rhythmic proportions.
You know soon you’ll be a laureate poet
Then the whole world will know it
Your poetry will have that appeal.
to be followed by a big book deal
Dream on, that's the easy part for it.
