Poets That I Know
Poets That I Know
Are we not but one ,
us writers .
Do we ever go anywhere or do anything
that we are not paying our way
by the pen ?
That we are not borrowing our moments
from the pages of time,
today as you reach down to
touch the colors of flowers
in the bed outside
your door .
Or as you take the wheel and stare through
a windshield
passing fields and flora
through a forest glen.
Know that you are never alone
never lonely.
We are right there beside you
the pen
the paper
the reader.

How true my friend, life is full of inspiration for our creative pens. There isn’t a day that goes by that doesn’t move or stir my soul. The slightest thing, emotions rise and creativity begins. I am so happy to be associated with friends who understand a poet’s journey, each and every day is but an adventure in study and expression. Thank you for being a friend Ed.
I love this poem Ed…it says it all and as a writer I agree with the sentiments. I like the format too.
We most surely are as one, us writers. Being a writer opens up the whole world and beyond to us. This is a wonderful poem, Ed.
So true Ed, we do have a different take on life, every experience, every moment simply fodder for the pen. I guess that’s why we all so relate to one another, as we are kindred spirits on a journey that is both difficult yet filled with beauty. A fine rendering my friend.
Great poem Ed and so true. We see poetry in everything around us, good or bad, really.
