A Poet Ii

A poet Explorer Hibernator Promoter A Worlds’ beautifier A poet’s Knapsack heaps Spring time smiles and weeps Summers hopes and dreams Winters warms and bleak A poet’s Mortal life dies Like everyone else’s But his divine soul Wings for everlasting goal

I like your thought process with "hibernator". The written word is so much different than the spoken word... what we say often has very little thought involved. While what we write is a meditation of sorts... making sure the message is clear, crafting and perfecting our words.

I love the continuance, Manel. Some call us hibernators, but I prefer observers and thinkers :)

Thank you for your enlightening comment Tim. I used the word "hibernator", because when a plot comes to your mind you let it grow for awhile until it get really matured and ready to burst. During that period, may be few minutes, you don't attempt to write your poem. So that is why I used that word. I await for your comments. Love manel
