\'First poem I\'ve written\'
(I bow to your superior talent)
can\'t imagine what growth
your poetry will showcase
by your 100th poem..
A Fantastic write!
thank you for choosing to share
(don\'t worry about critiques
and advises for refinement
this is should be your honeymoon period
with Poesy
tread gently and boldly, caress
your way towards forging
your own path,
read to learn what you like and don\'t
write, write, write
a time will come, when
you\'ll start wondering
if you\'ve got anything left
you\'ll start fearing
you\'re all tapped-out
bereft of inspiration\'s touch..
that\'s when you can start
reading your work again
aspiring for that perfection
of refinement and technical excellence
till then have fun, fall in love
with words and other Poet\'s
make mistakes
throw away, twice the work you begin
as you keep
and enjoy every second of the ride
whether you write to gain acclaim
or for yourself
treasure\'s Poesy\'s utility in your everyday life)
writing\'s a lonely, unrewarding
and bruising endeavour
for those with even a drop of talent
what matters most
is that you enjoy the process, that
you like reading your work..
stays strong!
I wish you the very best of luck
enjoy the ride!
