all of this and more

meno1972

I’m a poet. I’m a singer. A painter with no brush. An acrobat walking on a tight rope high above the tent floor. The stage is my canvas. My words are the paint. The microphone my instrument and the applause my reward. The stairs the tight rope and all around the laughing clowns.  
Yes I am a poet, a singer, an acrobat and a painter. I am all of this and more.

Wanting to touch your heart. To scare you and make you laugh. 
Yes I am all of this and more. The stage is my canvas. But I would love more

  • meno1972

    Oh my goodness. Thank you ever so much.

    • meno1972

      This was of many first poems that I wrote in the beginning.

    • burning-embers

      I know the feeling of coming off stage after 3 encores .... to nothing!
      A real feeling of loneliness,... and wishing there was more. Well penned. You certainly hit me in the guts with this one.

      • meno1972

        Sorry. No hurt was intended

        • meno1972

          Can you put music to this poem.

          • burning-embers

            Didnt hurt me, was emotional. Oh if only i had the time for music nowdays.

            • meno1972

              Well I would love it if it could be set to music someday

              Meno, what you are is an ARTIST, entertainer, thought provoker, emotion inducer, and humorist. Love to read your work.

              • meno1972

                Your poem is lovely, wish I could see you perform on stage I'm sure it would be an amazing performance

                • meno1972

                  If my poetry could be brought to live with music it would be fantastic

                • Louis Gibbs

                  I, too, have had a taste of performing, and the feeling of the connection you make with the audience is intoxicating ... never leaves you, does it. Enjoyed your fine poem, meno!

                    I would love to publish a book someday. I have many is rough draft form. Would like love to share poems like this one. And making money from it would be nice too. But reaching peoples heart would be wonderful

                    Good write, may your canvas be filled with words of colour.
