Beware

I write my poems with words that drip blood, Once written these poems are my treasures; Poems floating and lost within a flood, Words of sorrow and of pleasure. These poems are to me my flesh and blood, Beware new poets of poetry theft; Those skillful, clever and so deft. __________________________ May 15, 2015 Poetry/Verse/Beware Copyright Protected, ID 05-673-313-15 All Rights Reserved, 2015, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest Advice to New Writer's in Verse, Judged 2015 First Place

There is a great depth of emotional intensity in this poem. I agree our poems are our treasures. In Dante's Inferno the circles of fire in purgatory, the hottest fires of hell are reserved for plagiarism and rightly so. Loved this write. A#7
