A poet is a poem


A poet is a poem

A beautiful line pregnant with wisdom,
Crafted by the mighty hands of nature.
Birds beg him to sing,
In the middle of the night
And at the dawn of day.

A poet is a poem,
The history that's untold,
Sad tales and fantasies,
Touches of romantic nights,
Of life and madness.

A poet is a poem,
A serenade a lover sings
To her husband,
While watching the dawn star.
He's a lullaby a mother sings to her son,
To lull him to sleep.

A poet is the mournful song,
The ululations and groans of pain,

He's the victory song —
Yes, the trumpet of victory.
