I'm Still Learning

This is just a little diddy explaining why I sometimes put more than one poem to a page, a practice that will likely not continue, now that I have upgraded.

 

I’M STILL LEARNING
 
It’s been suggested numerous times,
I’m not the sharpest knife in the drawer
and sometimes I repeat myself,
by saying something I’ve said before.
 
I’m very new to the game,
crawling til I learn to walk.
Just picking up what I can
from the other poets talk.
 
Some said, “Only one poem to the page.”
Of course, they didn’t know my reason
I was trying to share my work
hoping people would find it pleasing.
 
I hadn’t yet evaluated
the value of the site.
Still trying to make a decision,
is this what’s really right?
 
With a limited number of free pages
I found 3 or 4 would fit on one.
So I grouped several poems together
just having a little fun.
 
A month or so went by
and I was catching on kinda fast.
I knew each new poem I added
wouldn’t be my last.
 
Finally a decision was made.
This is where I want to be.
Sharing my work with others
as they share theirs with me.
 
An “UPGRADE” was in order
and the proper buttons were all pressed.
Now I’ve pages & pages to fill,
putting my kind of poetry to the test.

Great way to express your learner's attitude, Richard.
Leonardo DaVinci, when he was eighty years old or more, is alleged to have said: 'Ancora Imparo,' "I am still learning".
Continued success.

Well, I was one of those who said one poem at a time. Hope you didn't take offense, but . . . You explained it to me and that was good enough . . .

You certainly do have a way with words. Too cute and I love it, of course.
