A Writer


A Writer

A writer, and who’s a writer?
There’s been a misconception
Some say  He is he who just writes,
Hey no, I’m here to change that notion,
So you put the write meaning behind your mind
And not get deluded  by the delusions
A writer, though writes,
But doesn’t just write
He, thinks, digs, and tills 
He seeks to uncover 
To uncover the very truth
 and yeah he finds the very truth within him
And when he finds,
With the passion for his world bundled up in him,
He just can’t wait to deliver,
Deliver what he discovers,
He shares his innermost concerns,
He shares his deepest feelings
He wants to give it all till he can no more.
Writers are the most creative, we’re the most gifted
The most romantic and most loving
We’re problem solvers and 
We’ve got outstanding understanding, yeah with solid wisdom
We can write for a century
We don’t care, we just wanna be us
Never you look down on the writing profession
Cos writers are brainers
We see with the mind where others see with the eyes
We’re awesome and magical
Give it up for all writers
Yeah, we’ve got it all!!!
Thumbs up to all creative writers!!!
And I’m proud to say,
I’m a writer to the moon and back!

Welcome to the soup, Ewatomi. You have chosen a tough vocation my friend. The life of a writer is a hard, discontented one. Why? Quite simply: Because although we all strive for perfection...Seldom do we attain it! But that is the paradox therein...is it not so. My best regards, Ewatomi Bolutife. :) john P.s The very best of luck!

Ps.... Ewatomi, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
