A Poets Mind

Indescribable thoughts expressed
Colour and detail unmissed
Subconscious voices absorb on paper
Stories of emotion so personal
Experiences shared for armour
Laughed at by the outsiders
Understood by the intelligent minds

Dear Claire- Relating to this "mindful" ha ha poem. You are right, outsiders oft think poets are bizarre free spirits...the logical, mathmatical mind doesn't express itself as ours. Fav part is relating the expression of one's emotion as an armour. Oh, so true! Enjoyed-much! gwendolen
