Though monetary wise,
It doesn't promise to pay
I craft poems everyday,
For instance say
'Why my dream object,
To affections mine
Is adamant to reciprocate!'
The other way round,
Though to acquaintances
Absurd, it may sound,
Some, I have to spend
My poems to newspapers
Magazines and
Websites to send!
For love of the labor,
I will never
Letup the endeavor!
There is a
Great deal of satisfaction
From sitting hours,
To put words into action,
Racking brain
And stretching imagination,
From the earth's core and crust
To the sky and firmament!
At night, when all is quiet,
Till I hit the nail
Right on the head,
I will not repair to bed!
Reading poems
Has satisfaction
No less, for it affords,
Handshakes,with poets
Of all ages,
Poets with poems
Of all color shades.
Probably the works
Of Shakespeare
That we hold dear!
What is more,Tagore.
In my duties
I will be remiss,
If I forget mention
Savo,Anna Akmatova,
Sara Teasdale
And Salomeja Neris.
Till getting a cherished corner
www.poetrypoems
Ecstatic I was never!
Now I peruse the websites
Of contemporary poets,
Displaying poetical prowess!
I want to add of course
An east African voice!
Out, a poem to digest
One could make a descent
Into wisdom's pit,
So poem virgins
Why don't you go for it?
From my experience,
For uplifting poems
'Start with Helen Steiner Rice!'
It is my advice.
