A Poet Pleas For Words

Like a child trying to stand, to be a poet One needs a vocabulary to rise! There are words I don't care about Others, that just don't dance. Words that absent of meaning! I desire, only words so passionate, They raise souls to the ceiling. Words that bring on buckets of tears or Conversely my biggest fears. Especially ...those that make my heart go: Bumperty- bump, bumpety bump. Words that are anything but dead! Words that move people to act! I struggle with the snacks of grand imagery. Trying to be cute~ is just not my suite. Oh, my muse, free me to be real! No prize should I wish! Just bless me to touch the soul of another! Whisper to me please, the magical words to utter!
