Honey Gatherer

We all dreamed to be something when we grew up
doctors, engineers, lawyers...
but none a poet
for even in youthful immaturity we knew
being a poet wouldn't do
the ones we happened to meet
looked such impoverished!
As now then too
poets were honey gatherers
seeking discerning minds
one read one lit up face
one sip of the nectar!
Most of us never achieved what we dreamed to be
it really didn't matter
the doctor could be an engineer
the engineer a lawyer
but maybe one of us
in his heart of hearts
wanted to be a poet
pursued sunshine
sank in darkness!
