A Peek Inside

I strive to write poetry
for the pleasure I derive
When others read what I pen
they’ll get a peek inside

When first I started writing
it never occurred to me
that you reveal your true self
by creating poetry

Comments from my fellow poets
who speak out on what I penned
I find so pleasant to read
to each one I do commend

I should join in and comment
on my fellow poets work
but I just don’t feel qualified
I guess that makes me a jerk?

Current demands on my time 
means poetry is denied
But I wrote this anyway 
it’s another peak inside

The title drew me in, and the poem was a lot of fun, and meaningflu.
