A poet is a butterfly that soars on wings made from words! We speak a different language, it's called poet.
Poets float above, never walk on the ground,
Poets rarely relate to life forms that surround.
We don't speak their language, we are not understood,
What they can't understand is taken for evil, not good.
A poet always sees in 3-D,
So normal folks can't see what we see.
Our realm is a fantasy world amid the clouds,
We always walk alone, even amid a crowd.
Sometimes we wear a vacant stare,
Our bodies are present, but our minds aren't there.
There are no boudaries or limits to us,
Everything is important, if folks don't see it, we are known to fuss.
Our minds continually go walk about,
So to get our attention, folks are known to shout!
We get annoyed, bein brought down,
What is so great about walking on the ground?
We care not if folks think us to be crazy,
For our minds are in a field loaded with daisies!
We are not insane, we are poets,
We are quite incredible, but sadly noboby knows it!
After studying this poem very carefully, I have never in my life felt so elated as a poet. We really are special people, and you have by this poem acted as an attorney for us. God bless you.
OH SC you nailed this one,
I was told by someone I was once close to, that I think to much
about things,for that I plead GUILTY.I guess, i'm not the only lost ball in the tall weeds.

VEry well stated and for the record I think you are quite right, in order to keep our muses and our minds satisfied with our work we epitomize the new age saying of thinking outside the box.
