Poets weep

Poets Weep

Poets use letters to create

words that come from deep

down in our souls, by using

those emotions that heal us

that is ingrained in us all

Those words are amazing as

they are made up of one or

more letters of the alphabet,

and when we put them

together in different orders

they spell out all the words

that you will not soon ever

forget. I guess you can call

it a poetic spell that we may

cast for when we read our

poetry that we write we hope

that they will always last.

Take for example love and

hate they are both four letter

words but they mean the

opposite, one we can use to

give hope and to heal while

the other we use to destroy

and to kill.

Our words that we write shall

live on forever just as if they

were frozen in time, while we

make them easy for you all

to remember like a child's

nursery rhyme. Poets shall

be here long after you are

gone as our bodies are just

a carrier for our souls that

will live on. For we write

down our emotions to

capture how we feel with every

single drop of all the ink that

we spill so that others will

know they are not alone giving

them time to gain strength and

the hope so that the may heal

and then move on. Our hearts

will remain broken for all the

world to see, because we

are poets and that my dear

friends is our life, you might

just say our so-called

destiny. That is why poets

are so emotionally strong, as

we tend to fall too fast in

love while hurting in pain

way to deep, while we

continue to write our words

down even as we weep.

Poet Richard M Knittle Jr.
