No Money In Poetry Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

No Money In Poetry



Oh he wants me to stop
Writing poetry for nothing
He'd love to see me drop
This pen for other things.

It will not make me rich
That's what he always says
Late nights of writing which
Wastes my time and does not pay.

In poetry there is no money
But I need to be a writer
For I can say this truthfully
There's no poetry in money either.
