what makes a poet

dusk arising

 

 

what makes a poet?
for theres something broken
inside a poet
something which cries
to be outspoken
in a poet
words which will touch you
from a poet
your pains recounted in the word
of a poet
and more, so much more
for the splenders of this beautiful life
are alive
in the heart of a poet

    I love the poem Dusk but I wouldn't say we are all broken. But we are all capable of expressing the aspects of ourselves freely

    Wonderful Dusk, you really spoke our hearts out !!

    This is interesting dusk. Reading poems from MPS has opened up my mind to so many shared emotions and ideas and laughter and friendships. And inspires poetry writing.

    Amen!
    so true, dear poet
    and so frustratingly, elusive
    to mere
    wannabe scribblers, like me
    lol
    (as-ever
    sorry for making your words
    all about me..)
    thanks Dusk, a great write!
    'in my humble opinion'

    Great measures for what is a poet. Much of what we write does come from the pain we experienced as part of us was broken. Sometimes I like to just write to laugh. Although this probably does not touch others as much and maybe is not poetic.
