Poet

You are only as good as what you believe

I once heard a poet is only as good as their definition of poetry

The way they write is defined by what they believe

They write and they write but seem to be in no hurry

They never run around circles pretending to be naieve

/

Do you want to write

Do you want to be a poet

Do you have time to delight

In all that you have made

    The rhythm flows like an inner dialogue, asking the reader to pause and reflect. Loved how it gently challenges us to embrace the joy of creating without haste. A cozy, thought-provoking read!

    This is wonderful, Thomas! I would say you're a poet, indeed. :)

    Check your spelling ("naive"). And you are a poet.
