Poet, Poetess is, and only is
muse’s servant, interpreter;
Horn my ear to listen,
feel the soul of poet, poetess
come pouring out in heartfelt words;
another world, woven around mine,
the entrance the poem, words
that no longer words are
but doorway to muse.

I almost always get yours....
But GUG, you never did comment on my poetry...is there a hint somewhere there?
p.s. I do like it.
Hmmmm,
not sure that I didn't not comment. on your poetry. Certainly did.
gug
Oh, really?
Where's the proof?
I don't mean the posts with the poetic interludes btw...I mean the actual poems-
“If the poet wants to be a poet, the poet must force the poet to revise. If the poet doesn’t wish to revise, let the poet abandon poetry and take up stamp-collecting or real estate.”

GUG, that anonymous comment smirks of ehsuneutics(that the spelling?), don't you agree?
Damn! Eshuneutics (I think!)
Hate mis-spellings!
Hi Princess,
sure, sounds like the man himself. 'bout the comments, afraid it is the same thing. I mean, I would tell you that I like the poem, but dunno why I dont like one, or why I like it for that matter.
Hi anon,
Lady thought you are like a friend of ours.
Anyway, a valid point you raise. But fame and fortune I am not seeking. I write for my pleasure. No, I am no poet. Dont need that recognition.
Besides intimating I need to revise, you did not actually comment on the poem itself...
