To Poets and Their Poetry
Here I make my lone stand, as one of the few poetic rhyming masters
It might be because I never truly understand what the poetic disaster
Of works that never flow, Works that are always low,
Random words on random lines, Works that don’t have rhymes
It is a little sad for my eyes to see,
To know I am the only one that is to be
Does it mean my work is all that of a hack
That all I do is just warped and cracked
Or does it mean that I am unique from the rest
I know in any case I am no where near the best
It is very possible that I am just a fool
Who never learned the proper poetic tool
But I walk my own chosen path to my dreams
Suggesting the same to all others streams
Do your passions how you desire
Don’t be forced to early retire
Choose to walk your own path
Ignore the pains of others wrath
I am still young and have a lot to learn
Though my heart will continue to yearn
For fresh ideas and wisdom of the other poets who share my goals
We each have a special way to act upon our self created roles
All I can do for what I truly don’t understand is spread the word
And make sure that it will eventually be grasped and understood
The Poet I nominate is Brian Miller.

It is a good message you’re passing here. True, each one has his own path and own role. One must follow his heart expressing in whatever way he has chosen.
