A Comedian Poem by Ravi Panamanna

A Comedian

Rating: 2.7


I can think, but
am not a thinker.
can write, but not
a writer either! .

I can sing, but
am not a singer.
can draw, but not
a painter too! .

I can run, but
am not a runner, can
laugh, and make the
world laugh too! .

Gosh this is so simplistic yet wonderful...as I just left leaving you a comment to give me a line or your wisdom for inclusion into the poem 'Regrets Can Change The World' I hit on this....and gosh if you could synthesize this into a one or two liner.....there would be no better.......I'm wanting to do it...but it is your newborn.....

There is something universal about a good laugh. COSTS NOTHING BUT CAN BE WORTH A MILLION.

A refreshing thought. I like this poem's spontaneity and lack of pretension.
