Ignoring a Poet

When we ignore a poet, it does not harm them.

It simply means, we don’t value them, as sons of HaShem. (God)

But HaShem, sees the purposeful harm you do cause.

A poet writes, and you like a bear, give them encouragement’s pause?

Excuses, we make are as dead as old moss.

I think poetry is the purest form of writing...it has to be truthful; and from the heart. So, there is always something worth focusing on, and then encouraging. Even funny poetry...light verse, leaves the soul vulnerable and apparent. If one wants to hide...poetry is not barrier to choose.

Love, love your comment. I don’t like poetry that people hide behind. But, I am not good at fictional poetry. Nor nature poetry.worse, at humorous poetry. Three years here and consider myself a beginner. So much to learn Prince! Hello to your Princess. Pangie

I just love the rhymes here... and, of course, the use of 'Ha-Shem!' ~ Ignorant One

The sense of community is lost when we don’t encourage one another.

So true...go through the list of poets. Some are rarely read. I don’t get it. I am grateful if I am read at all. Most know here I cannot type. In my case vision and speed slow me down, plus posting and commenting. Alas! Pangie
