The reason you will find out
My Reason for Writing I write not to please or to delight others, The grown-ups or even my closest brothers I don’t write out of my imagination Not out of my sightseeing or observation I write what my life experience showed me What my soul understood and taught me I don’t seek titles, grades, or awards I write not forcefully, but what is right, Just to thank my glowing, golden spark That confirms my thoughts, day or eve Or during autumn with its dry leaves Gives me remorse when I am wrong Fills my heart with the best song Awards my soul, with joy, if I am right Copyright 2007 Emile Tubiana

Now you have revieled yourself to us, Emile..."in a most delightful way." Following the classics of yesteryears, poetry comes from a personal heart or soul.
Me, too, Emile. Most of my writings, whether stories or poetry, are from life experiences. Yet I have that silly, imaginative side to me where my writings oft' spring from; along with messages of importance to me, then I speak loudest :o).
Note...I'm catching up with your works...

Excellent poem.

Two of your lines really struck me with their truth and beauty:

I write what my life experience showed me

What my soul understood and taught me...

We write for ourselves. If others read and enjoy it - well, it's like frosting on the cake. Well said.

You are so right, you should write simply because you want to and for no other purpose than to satisfy yourself. Beautifully written...

Be safe,
