Notes About The Poem

If I Fell In Love With a Poet

 “If I fell in love with a poet” 
Inspired  by Silent One’s “When a Poet falls in Love”.

 *******

If I fell in love with a poet 
How wonderful life would be
To wake each morning to a poem
Would be euphoric for me.

There'd be joy and glory in living
The wonders of all I'd see
Hearing endearing sounds of nature's 
Charm of creativity.

Bird tweets would be enchantingly sweet
Music would bring me to tears
Every emotion stirred and shaken
Each time a poem appeared.

Poets cause ecstatic devotion 
Inciting the heart and mind
Pleasing to recipients senses
Going to one's head like wine.

I love all words written of romance
Shooting my heart like a dart
If I fell in love with a poet
He'd be holder of my heart.

My sweetheart could present his poems 
For the whole wide world to see
But I'd know the truth inside my heart
Every word was meant for me.

If I fell in love with a poet 
I'd be happy all life long
Inspiration of every sonnet
Libretto to every song.

My ideal man is a poet
No other would ever do
I once fell madly for a poet
But he fell for slinky Sue.

Silent One October 30, 2020 at 4:08 AM So glad I inspired you and your poem is so much better than mine.. The thing with a poet is, he may have a heart that falls in love too easily, lol.. Beryl Edmonds October 30, 2020 at 5:43 AM Not at all better than yours, thank you for the inspiration... Belle

Andrea Dietrich October 29, 2020 at 5:58 PM wow, you were greatly inspired by Silent One. I had read his poem earlier and was thinking I had happened on it again and then realized it was a response to that one! Beryl Edmonds October 29, 2020 at 6:08 PM Thanks Andrea, it’s good when a poet inspires others to write a different take on the same theme. Belle
