What Bells

Kurt Philip Behm

If not a Poet

what would I be

A soldier, a sailor

a fading marquee

 

If not a Poet

whose soul would I claim

a saint’s or a sinners

to praise or defame

 

If not a Poet

which path would I choose

the known or untraveled

which one did Frost use

 

If not a Poet

what hills would I climb

what bells could I ring

— in place of the rhyme

    What is a poet? As long as you write poetry, you are a poet, but the words that are put into it are colorful.
