Joker44’s Side – Writing Poetry

Nafis Light

Why Do I Keep On Writing Poems?
Why Do I Post Them Here and There?
It doesn’t seem like a hobby
but rather...commitments involving Love and Care;
Care For The World;
Care For Others;
Care For People;
In The Only Way That I Am Capable;
Which Is Through Writing Poetry
because people read, listen, and see them
and it connects to their Heart and Soul
and it is an amazing thing to see.

    GOOD AFTERNOON ~ JOKER ! Thanks for an excellent Ode emphasising the fact that we who are True Poets dont write Poetry for our own Gratification (good word !) but to show how much we care for our Planet - EARTH - and for all our Fellow Brothers & Sisters - 7.8+ Billion of them - AMEN ! We love them all irrespective of Class - Colour - Culture or Creed - AMEN again !

    Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS

    You are right, it isn't a hobby, it is sui generis, a compulsion for some (I think of Walt Whitman), a voice for others (Emily Dickinson), a loving gag to bring joy to the world (e e cummings), a bardic spell (Yeats), a chant of war and peace (Homer), a dance of life (Villon), a cry for justice (Maya Angelou), preservation of a culture (Walcott), an act of devotion (Donne), or a caged bird singing though the wires (Mary Leapor). Care for others is as good a motivation as any!
