' A Poet's Outlet' Poem by Linda Winchell
' A Poet's Outlet'
We poet's need, his or her outlet!
Where we can write down the words that clutter up our minds.
It is a curse to have such a talent
placing ones feelings, of words sometimes in rhyme.
Not just anyone, can master this feat
I'm not saying that, I really have.
But I have been pluged into this poet's outlet
the same as you, and for that I'm really glad.
I read some of your poems, then maybe you read some of mine?
Whatever the case might be, everyone different
and most of which are really fine.
I haven't a knack, for non-rhyming poems
It really isn't, this Poet's, poetic style.
But for those that do, I kindly read them through
and with wonderment puzzled, scratch my head and smile.
I think this currents, ' two twenty? '
Because, I go about writing, real fast!
But I always wonder, maybe you do too?
Thinking, 'How long is this streak of poetry, going to last? '
Whatever length of time we're all given
'Bravo! ', I say to you!
Now are we going to get a bill?
Pluging into these outlets used?
'Oh my! ', I'll have to end it here! '
Because I think, I'VE JUST BLOWN, MY POET'S OUTLET FUSE! '
Thank you sis for these wonderful words in tribute to our craft. Yes, we sometimes sit and ponder what those words in our mind mean, and so we write them out to see if they make any sense. I have so many thoughts rumbling around in my head, that this scrambled mind is so very cluttered with what I have yet to share. You have done every poet proud with this write. Thank you. Love & hugs, Barbara
I think this currents, ' two twenty? ' Because, I go about writing, real fast I love it when the ideas come fast enough to just write as quickly as I can. Don't happen very often, for me. A great poem, Linda and I like your open philosophy about poetry. I, too prefer great rhyming but I enjoy others also. Thanks, best wishes. Richard
Yes it's true Linda - every poet is different..... and how gald we are of that eh? a fine and amusing poem..... thanks for this..... top mark too from Fay.
So true we all write differently and for different reasons, but mostly because the words won't stop. Mine come at night when I try to sleep and then fad with the morning light levaing me to wonder if it made sence at all or was I in a dream. T
A lightly humorous but telling poem about we poets and our craft. Enjoyed your poem very much, guess I was plugged into it! ! Thank you for sharing. RoseAnn
Gifted that we can plug in to the outlet that is fed by the electricity.... pulsing poetry in our hearts. PEACE
Rich and refreshing with a humerous ending. Very nice my friend.10/10
I thank God for poetry... to me it's the pulse of the human soul put on display for all to see that underneath we are as one. Thanks for your fine expression of poetry.
