What A Poet Is To Me Personally

(4/13/13) A poet is a novelist, a vacationer who can take you Into a realm of fantasy or reality. One who will have you travel thru their minds Their feelings, their emotions, one which can Make you envision or feel the aches, pains, sorrows, joys And of everything that life has to offer. To be able to see the beauties and the ugliness that it may bring The poet tries to put themselves on both sides of the fence And describe it the best that they can. There is no particular style for poetry! Every poet chooses what they feel comfortable with. The key is the way that they touch the readers. Can the reader envision in their minds what is happening And do they feel what is being said. e.g. – OH BUT TO DREAM A BEAUTIFUL DREAM Is it perceived as a statement or a question? No matter what style we may use, it is how we use it And how people relate to it. This is “WHAT A POET IS TO ME PERSONALLY”
