I Am Poet Poem by Sylvia Chidi

Speak not to me of populated masses,
I am a poet who desires the fire in life's Song
Every corner of the earth is a crowd that passes,
I have seen it and I have known it all along!
I am a poet so lead me to those laughing glasses
The joys of life is where I choose to belong
For Love and Friendship is my chosen fashion
The pure element of life that ignites my passion!
And today I have this inner feeling
That many lips have shared and expressed
I am a poet so I am revealing
The wild moment that stays within my chest
A secret for years that it deserves concealing,
In its perfect form at last confessed!
What amazes me is the moments we spend in high spirits
Can end in minutes and are within boundless limits
