Great poem, Joyce! Sadly, not many hear the poet.

Ah Joyce, I do admire poets and the deep things they write about. Sometimes the meaning is obscure, yet there is always something so beautiful and mysterious in what a poet writes. You have done a great job in how you captured the essence of a poet.

Poets live part reality, part fantasy land. So I suppose they tend to make the ugly uglier, and the lovely lovelier. Beautiful poem. Victor

"Poets"
The message in this poem rings loud and clear
Meanwhile it has a serenity and subtleness about it.
A wonderful penning!

Thank you,

<grin> I agree with you, William. Whenever I have problems, worries, questions... I lay them at His feet and try my best to forget about them.

You pen a most beautiful awareness of what the poet does for humanity. It is all you say and more. Thank you for this insightful compostion, from which I gain much.

I chuckle at the, "- - before our God returns and intones, Nevermore.....part, since I don't worry about God any more. I do the best I can from day to day, but methinks he worries a lot about me.
confession over! - Bill

Joyce,

Indeed impressive; I think poets write of beauty in the midst of ugliness to make the world a little brighter for those of us who still have hope...well done!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

You give us so many impressive thoughts to ponder in this piece, Joyce. I'd like to think that many, nay...most poets retain in their hearts the innocense of a child, joy of being alive, love, and constant hope for a better world - condenced it's called optimism. Great poem.
