A poet must write, it is a law of nature, just like the rising sun.
A bird's gotta fly and a poet's gotta write,
We must express the beauty that is in our sight.
Poets are a rare and wonderous breed,
Happiess is a pen and paper, that's all we need.
Poets write about emotions, laughter and pain,
Most time, poetry is the only thing keeping us sane.
Poets are the eyes and heart of the planet earth,
Poets keep love alive and we have from birth.
Fish gotta swim and bird gotta fly,
A poet's gotta write until they die

I agree-even at times when i think " i am not going to write anymore" somewhere it breaks out and i start writing something
so true and I know there's a quote
that when poetry dies the earth does
too. or at least our species.
I'm reading your work with fond thoughts.
I love it, Lady Lollipop.
In the name of every poet around and kicking...THANKS!!!! we all write our words like the rivers push its waves, to read a poem is to get wet looking for a little fish.

Each person is but a grain of sand resting beside the sea. This thought sets the tone for Jill Eisnaugle’s latest poetry collection, Beside Still Waters.
